2.5 disassembly

[rockysummit]

I am taking a part a 2.5 and I need to get the crankshaft out, the piston and sleeve are out. Do you push the crankshaft toward the exhaust outlet or pull it out on the carb side

It will push out through the exhaust side. Sometimes I have to use the handle of a screwdriver or a dead blow hammer, and tap from the flywheel side. Don't use any thing hard that will damage the end of the crank.

Thanks in tapped it gently out the exhaust side and I didn't move so I thought I was better off asking quickly.
