I'm trying to remove the crankshaft in my 95 b18c. I have everything removed such as rods, pistons, mains,etc. I removed the bolts holding the two end covers on, but I can get them off to remove the crank. Any recomendations/sugestions on how to remove them? I don't want to apply to much force unless it's required...Thanks

 

the force is required. See if you can't tap the side of the cap with a plastic or rubber tipped hammer so that you can then wiggle it off being carful not to damage the polished fininsh of the crank journal.

 

Yeah I got it, thanks for the response...
I just used a screw driver and rubber mallet to tap it free...
