I need to pull my engine and transmission to freshen up the flathead. She has a serious leak from the front of the oil pan, and number one's lifters have a serious click when running.
My question so far is this- Does the accelerator linkage come out with the engine and transmission after you disconnect the pedal on the left side?

Re: Pulling the flathead 6
It all depends on whether you remember to disconnect it and how hard you pull to get it out!
You didn't think I would let that go by did you? After looking at my linkage that is what I would do, much easier to deal with once out on the floor. Be honest John, That thing has more than one serious "click" to it.

I seriously doubt you can wedge even a V6 567 in there.

Re: Pulling the flathead 6
They linkage is attached to the bell housing. Just had to undue the part from the pedal.
