Greetings guys

I'm trying to get some help or guidance. I recently was trying to remove my tranny from a 2002 AP1.
However i could not pry the box from the motor, all bolts were removed and the driveshaft released.
I did some checking and saw you guys say it is a pull type tranny. Is there a clip to be released from the pivot inside the box to get it to come loose?
Additionally i have a secondary problem whereby whom ever went at the starter before me caused some damage to the threads in the bell housing so i have to get it released to install a helicoil.
Last but not least there is a leak from the back of the box and i am thinking its a manufacturer defect as there are no seals for the honda mtf to leak from. I noticed guys have the same area im referring to pasted with extra silicone.
Some guidance would really be appreciated.

Also forgot to mention my motor is not in the original chassis, its placed in a chassis similar to that of an AE86.

Thanks

You need to unclip the shifter fork to separate it completely, but it sounds like you got no gap at all right now?
Make sure you really got all 9 bolts removed.

My guess is you haven't removed the top starter bolt (nr. 12 on picture above)
It's the one you acces with long extension:

Can you take a picture of the leak?

Ohhh Thanks, ill have to unclip the shifter fork then, this is where i go through the space by the shifter fork with an extension to remove it ?
I got all 9 bolts when i first removed them.

I removed the starter bolt, it was very tight but I did remove it. actually it wont even be bolted right up when i tried to reinstall it. threads are gone. Ill try to get a pic of the leak and post it.

Jin_Muff

should be able to see it although not as clear as looking at it directly

Nice guide: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/californ...ll-diy-779439/

flandres probably meant clutch fork what you remove from the throwout bearing.

Jin_Muff

Yes i understand what he meant, think its a clip i may have to remove.
Wondering if anyone can guide me, or show me a process.
Although I know about them this is my first time working on any.

Yes clutch fork is the correct name, here it is unclipped


Also check the guide in the link posted above and make sure you haven't forgot something.

I just went through the guide, i think i had all the bolts disconnected, however i did not unclip the fork.
As soon as I can i will go at it again..
Thanks for the guide.
I'll keep you guys posted.
