Re: Stuck Motor

Could be permatex cause your supposed to put it around the water pump housing and seal it.

Re: Stuck Motor

ok today i tryed a new way of pulling it.(PIC)
now that im able to spin it i have noticed that i have unlocked the upper drive, (that housing is in there that tight???) because the gear up at the very top is spinning now but its still kind of tuff to spin... but hey its unlocked now.

Re: Stuck Motor

Ok CAREFULLY, VERY CAREFULLY, put some heat to the outside of the housing.

Keep it moving the heat.

Can you grab the shaft with a lock jaw plier?

The guts are all torn up inside the housing.

Might be cheaper to just get a used upper 400. They are on e-bay all the time.

I have seen the whole drive for 400 bucks.
