Title: Vent Cowel removal Post by: Old_Mt_Isa_Boy on February 12, 2011, 06:41:52 PM Is there a trick to removing the cowel? ??? Does the link shaft have to be removed? Just seems a bit awkward and do not want to break. A reference to a page in the manual would be fine, i cannot see it in there.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help. Rgds Wayne Title: Re: Vent Cowel removal Post by: graham_fuller on February 12, 2011, 06:52:22 PM Hi Wayne,
Yes i have always removed the link shaft first then the 4 screws, and then lift it out. I don't know of any other way, it is a close fit. Cheers, Graham Title: Re: Vent Cowel removal Post by: Stewy on February 12, 2011, 08:31:20 PM Hi Wayne,
I did mine on the donor FC wagon this afternoon. It is on page 27 of the workshop manual under Front End Ventilator A bit of wd 40 spray on the nuts high up under the dash and on the control handle thread. then unscrew anticlockwise, i put a small scdewdriver through the hole to unwind it because it was tight all the way down the thread. then undo the 4 nuts and bolts ( 2 each side) then lift out. hope this makes sense Cheers Stewy 8) Title: Re: Vent Cowel removal Post by: Old_Mt_Isa_Boy on February 12, 2011, 08:46:32 PM Makes sense now, Thanks guys.
