Split the engine and transmission tonight. The one bolt that needs an allen key to remove was a tough one to get going. Almost didn't break loose. Had to hammer it beat the socket into it and then finally cracked loose. It was starting to strip and this was the last attempt before drilling the head off. I'm really grad it came out. Since these bolts were covered in antisieze and were only installed 2 years ago, once cracked loose, came out really easy. The clutch looks OK but the slrings in the dual mass flywheel feel looser than they should. I'll take it to a specialist to look at it and if the old one is in better shape and can be re aurfaced, I'll go with that option. Next is to lift the engine up enough with the ATV jack to mount it on the engine stand. Then the real tear down can start.
