Default Having a hell of time getting the bell housing off..need advice...

is there a trick to getting the bell housing off the engine? I have unbolted all the nuts and I got the bell housing about 1/4" off the engine, but can't get the darn thing off...am I missing something here? The Manual was kid of vague, but it said just take the nuts off...is there something else I need to take off?

I noticed a sensor on the passenger side...do I need to remove that?

help!>

I know on other cars you have to disengage the fork. I have never done it on a Diablo but I have done a lot of other cars. If you do not disengage the the fork from the throw out bearing it will never come off. Just my two cents.

I thought it might be something internal....

How do you disengage the forks?

Okay..why is it when you post a picture of a girl in a shiney black outfit you get a ton of responses...but when you post a few techy questions...I get little response...uuggh!

I think I need to remove the arm by the slave on the side of the bell housing.

I don't think I want to get responses from gucci gold wearing guys. Something tells me they don't have the right answer.

I figured it out..It was real simple. Had to remove the arm on the side of the transmission.






This is what broke. The transmission drive shaft. Now I need to get the snap rings off...they are a pain in the ass!
