    Is there a trick to get the declutching shaft out of the case on the 2065 motor. It looks like you remove the stop screw and it should just pull out? It won't... Whjat am I missing?

    Thanks

    The seal is stopping you from pulling out with the shaft. The seal will come out as you push the shaft up from inside the case

    So you have to split the cases?

    Sorry, I assumed you had the cases apart.
    Curious, why do you want to take it out?
    The seal is for keeping things out, water, dirt and dust etc. more than keeping oil in and I've never heard of a problem with the shaft.
    If the cases are not apart, you will need to remove the primary side cover and pull out the clutch rod. It engages with the cut-away in the shaft. Then work the seal out (you will probably destroy the seal taking it out), remove the locating screw and pull the shaft out.

    With the clutch rod out after you remove left side cover and springs and pressure plate, it is still an oomph to get those out. Seal provides alot of resistance as well as what its real purpose is for.
    Pressure plate acuation rod must be out though as there is tension on it from the springs and against the cam bevel on the lower section of the de clutching shaft

    I put a fender washer or just the clutch arm back on and use a rolling head bar to pop it out, like was said, have to have the pushrod backed off.

    Ok, great. I bought a bottom end off ebay and the shaft was removed off that one. I am pulling one off another engine. I have pulled the clutch rod out. Is there any trick to putting it back on?
