hi. i just bought a new sts d21b.
i am not new to engines ....i have had over 10 engines b4. and rebuilt many of them a few times over aswell...
i like to pull the engine apart and flush with fuel and measure original specs b4 i run it....
but for some reason there doesnt seem to be enough space to slide out the rod/piston...
the sleeve is out and the backplate... i have the crankpin at "10pm to 2pm" and trying to slide it out, but just wont come out...
any ideas?
