Has anyone else ever had the bottom engine to frame bolt seize up, and if so how have you worked it free?
Ive got the engine out now from a cb250rs by cutting one side of the bottom bracket, and wiggling it out sideways.
But i,m still left with the bolt well seized into the engine casing
I intend to take it to my mates garage and tip the engine on its side in his press, and push it out as you would a car wheel bearing.
The head of the 14mm bolt rounded off after considerable pressure was used so i thought i would weld on a larger nut,thats when i discovered the bolt was cast, and the welder didn't like that much
Why is it the simplist of job's always go pear shape on me !!!
