G16 side cover removal ?
Have started disassembling my G16 engine. It ran well but smokes. Going to re-ring.
Having a little trouble getting the side cover off and don't want to damage it. I have it loose from the engine (can get about 1/4" gap) but it does not seem to want to come off past the seal/crank snout. Just don't want to be too rough on it and damage it. Any tricks/pointers? Thanks! |

It should pop off without much effort. Maybe tap lightly.
Got this stuff if you need it. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/golf-...ine-parts.html |

Re: G16 side cover removal ?
It came loose fairly easily from the block and the crank spins freely. However when I try to remove it the crank moves laterally with it until the flywheel/fan is against the engine. It won't go any further. Almost like the seal is holding the cover from sliding off the crank snout.

Re: G16 side cover removal ?
The side cover is likely sticking to the bearing. Apply a little heat to the side cover, shouldn't take a bunch. If you didn't plan on a new seal, you should change that plan.
