Interesting idea about drilling small pilot hole for the penetrating lube; and how cast iron block(engine) cracks off before the steel bracket comes off.
Make sure the retaining bolts are removed. Take a rubber mallet and tap on the alternator to free it from its position.
The steering pump is attached with 2 bolts. If you take the top bolt out and loosen the bottom bolt until it's almost completely out, you can move the pump/pulley enough to snake that bottom left water pump bolt out.
tap on the water pump shaft the gasket is holding if all the bolts have been removed
stuck? how is it stuck? if you have removed all (4) bolts then it should slide off.. if not push hard on the caliber to depress the cylinder making it easier to slide off
its a fairly straight forward procedure. remove the negative battery terminal, unplug the connector on the alternator, and remove the nut from the main power wire stud. then pry the wiring harness off the alternator body with a screwdriver. remove the 12mm bolt from the bottom of the alternator, and pivot it toward the engine. then the belt can be removed. once that's done, remove the 14mm pivot bolt and the part can be twisted out. if its stuck on the top, pry it with a big screwdriver, there isn't much you can hurt. installation is reverse of removal.
i have seen it where the rim gets stuck on the wheel hub, this happenned on my dads car and to get it off we had to give it a couple whacks with a small hammer, but be careful if you have alloy or chrome rims you can chip or dent them
Common signs of a stuck bottom bracket on a bicycle include difficulty pedaling smoothly, creaking or grinding noises while pedaling, and a feeling of resistance in the pedals. To resolve this issue effectively, the bottom bracket may need to be removed, cleaned, and lubricated. If the problem persists, it may be necessary to replace the bottom bracket entirely.
They do get stuck, but not really hard. There is only a thin rubber gasket underneath. suspect you don't have all the bolts out. Are you sure the ones in the middle under the spark plug wires are out?
Remove the nagative cable from the battery(as to not get shocked), remove both the top and bottem bolts. The bottem one is long and is also larger and has no threads in the middle and has a tendancy to get stuck easily. Just keep losening it and pull it out while supporting the alternator. Carfully remove the harnesses and you're done!
First I assume by "fix" you mean replace. The first thing to know is that every auto parts store I have ever seen or heard of either charges a "core charge" which is refundable upon returning your old bad alternator, or requires you to bring in the old alternator to begin with. With that in mind, since it is relatively simple (I have been known to remove, and replace mine in about 15 min) If I can get the vehicle there, I tend to do mine in the parking lot at the parts store. First disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, and make sure it is not resting in a manor to continue to provide an intermittent connection. If you do not still have the sticker showing you the belt routing attached to the vehicle take note of the route it takes before going any further. The tension pulley is on your left, with a small square hole. Insert your 3/8 in ratchet into this hole, and pull the left (counter clockwise). You should then be able to remove the belt. Then if you can get to them, remove the two wires attached to the alternator itself, one is a small plastic clip, the other a nut holding on a ring terminal. There are two bolts that need to be removed, one on the top left, one on the bottom left. Then you will need something to pry with to remove it, it will still be stuck. Simply pry it out being careful not to drop it. (remove any wires you haven't already removed at this time) Once it is out, you will be able to see the collars that the bolts were through, use the pry bar you used to remove the alternator to push the collars towards you so that you can get the new alternator in. Once you have the new alternator, you simply put it in place, tighten the bolts and connect the plastic clip, and the ring terminal. When you tighten the bolts that hold it in place, you will push the collars against the new alternator tightening it back up. Last, reconnect the negative terminal of the battery.
Make sure that you have removed the nuts from the bottom of the hings pins on all hinges, then if they still resist give a sharp pull straight up on the door, you may just have a buildup of rust on the bottom of the hinge pin.
you cant, it has to be removed. it is very simple though, onlt 2 bolts and a connector. it is right in the front of the engine and it probably has a pebble of carbon stuck in it.
