Hi,
I am in the process of rebuilding the motor. I have removed everything
and now need to remove the intermediate unit.
How do I remove the intermediate cover so I can get to the bolts
to remove the powerhead. I have taken all the bolts out and it seems
the cover needs to come off but how? Anyone have a schmatic?
I ordered a repair manual but it does not show my motor.
Please help.
Thanks

Usually you can grab it by the flywheel and yank it back and forth to pop it loose

I used a crow bar. Powehead separated. Engine is off and ready for the machine shop. Now I hope we can find piston , rings etc. For this motor.
Carb rebuild kits are ?. Will try to clean up first. Any suggestions?
Thanks
