Shawn,
We've had one here so tough that even while heating it to near molten
it chipped a finger on our quality gear puller..

they can be down right impossible.. but patience and perseverance might
help out with this.

good luck..
Dan.

I can't get the &#*$(# clutch lever off the clutch fork rod! I need to
get this
apart so I can replace the broken up plastic sleeve on the rod. I've
let is
soak overnight with PB Blaster, and bashed it as hard as I dare, but
there
seems no way to hold this thing still while bashing it without
destroying the
bellhousing! This is a diesel bellhousing, otherwise I probably would
have
smashed it to bits by now in frustration. Should I try heat? Cut the
damn
thing off?
Any suggestions appreciated before I ruin the bellhousing!
