Dealing with a Driveshaft stuck in Crankshaft (flood damaged motor) I want to separate the 2 halves of Crankcase/Cylinder to get better access to the bottom of Crankshaft. I have removed the 6 Machine Screws 318622 on exterior of Crankcase/Cylinder plus I removed the 2 Machine Screws (p/n =?) that can be accessed only from the Intake Manifold side .
I am a bit unsure which way to tap out the Taper Pin 300402 on starboard side. Exploded diagram seems to indicate the Tapered Pin is inserted from the front, but factory paint on the rear side of Pin and lack of paint on Front side of Pin indicates the Pin was inserted from Rear.
Am I correct in thinking I should tap this Pin out by tapping/striking from the Front (Intake Manifold) side of engine?
Thanks in advance.
