I was wondering, do the flywheel bolts on a f23a1 unscrew normally (counterclockwise) or clockwise (why the hell would that be!?)

Mine are tight as ph*ck and i just want to make sure i'm heading the right direction before i make any costly mistake

 

Always righty tight, lefty loosy, so counterclockwise to loosen. I loosen mine on the H22 and F22. All the same. I heard Lock-tite would cause that to happen as well.

 

Yes they are normal! First spray them with pb blaster NOT WD 40. I use a cheap electric impact gun from harbor freight. Just make sure you push the back of the gun towards the flywheel to make sure it does not slip off

 

thanks guys!

i sprayed them a few times with releasall and moovit, ill go buy an impact socket tomorrow and give it a try, if it doesnt work ill try heating up the bolts maybe they had loctite on from factory (i dont think the clutch was ever changed, it has 297 ***km on it!)
