• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Need some help please

I'm having to replace the clutch cover and I can't get the nut loose under the diaphragm cover. I know you have to hold with a allen wrench and turn nut but it want come loose. Does anyone have any ideas.
 
Use a torch and heat it?
Or bring the engine up to temp and it might heat it enough?

Just some ideas.

Curious..!!

what roadster..?? Year and model..?? Clutch cover removal should be the bolts around the cover then pull it off. No need to remove anything else if manual but not sure on the semi auto. Will check shop manual tomorrow...:dontknow: You could try hitting the nut with a smaller socjet and hammer to brake it loose..:dontknow:

I recomend P. B. Blaster , let it soak for about an hour it will come off then.

Sounds like a loc-tite was used on the nut. Heat works the best to brake it loose, but I would not use an open flame here. If you have a heat gun you can heat up the nut with that and then take a punch and tap the face of the nut with a sharpe blow to loosen the loc-tite. It should turn off after that.
