Need Help With Engine Removal

[Jonathan Miller]

Hey I'm having trouble removing the engine on my rx 1 , I cant get the bolt which is bolt #1 on this diagram out so i can lift the engine out , I took the nut and washer off which is labeled #3 and #6 but I don't understand why it won't just slide out . It says there is a bolt which is #5 on the spec i don't understand how to get that one out and if its holding the long bolt #1 in I have used deruster and tried to heat it and hit it with a hammer but its not moving at all. Can anyone help me please ?

try heating just the head of the bolt and pushing a candle/wax onto the bolt where it goes through as well as the head. works to get the lube in where needed.

Put the nut back on and give it a wack with big hammer. The other end is like a carriage bolt and I am sure its stuck in the square hole.

Agree with MrSled. Run the nut on several threads.Use a long extension bar with the socket. Hit the end of the extension with BFhammer so you don't damage the nut and threads.
