Hi All,

I have the problem of the engine always stopping in the same spot and the ring gear teeth are worn. I would like to replace. I have stripped a WD45 down pretty much so i don't have a problem getting prepped for the job. I've never pulled an engine b4 and i do have access to engine lift but am not sure where (which bolts) to hook it to. Are there any alignment issues getting it back together. are there any gaskets involved? I seen the suggestions on inspecting or replacing the pilot/throw out bearing. Also seen suggestions regarding putting the new ring in the oven. any other suggestions. i think i've read every string on this forum regarding this issue. I have the manual. i just need to get it done. I am in the Frederic, WI area so i know there's a allis mechanic just a few miles down the road i can always call to bail me out. Thanks for any help.
 
the best way to hook a engine hoist to a 226 gas wd45 engine . Is to make a steel plate with holes that will fit on the rocker arm and valve cover studs . This will lift the engine level. I always remove the valve cover when attaching my plate I also welded a eyebolt to the plate but it could be drilled and nutted for a lifting ring.
 
mlpankey,

When using this method is the weight of the engine pretty well even? If i put a lift ring of sorts on this should it be centered or more toward the front or back of the engine?
