someone must have some input??

[jtgh]

you forgot to say what trouble.
trouble withthe torque converter bolt,

just tight? or what is the exact issue?


see attach

bolt #7 series?

[jtgh]

if a bolt seems tight.
heat it white propane torch, nothing blasing hot ,just hot.
spray wd40 or the like on it ,
pray is sucks some in as it cools (creats internal vacuum with the cooling off moment)
repeat until it comes out.

[tracker01]

yes it is very tight we did not want to snap them..they dont leave yo much room do they??

[jtgh]

nill room

if you do snap them at least fly wheel come off easy
and you can work at it at a bench.
id heat it.
spary it with penetrating oil,
and rest it over night. cross fingers.
