So I traded for this M670 diesel. I dont know much about it at all. From what I understood is that the clutch went out and then it was parked. The exhaust pipe and muffler are pretty rotten, so the engine is siezed. I've got it separated right now. Also have the engine torn down.
This is my first time working on a MM so I'll have some questions as I get it up and moving again.
So my problems right now are..
The piston is still stuck. It's been soaking in kroil for a few days.t's in my press now, but as you can see, a sleeve has moved before the piston wanted to let go. These are sleeveless engines so I'm not sure how to proceed from here.
The water pump was also locked up, but I've since cleaned it out and it rotates again
Not sure if the ampli-torque is working properly of if the shift forks arnt moving some gears around. Still diagnosing that one.
Also, I cant find any specs on a clutch disk. How thick is it new and what thickness is it time to replace? I dont know if mine was slipping because it's bad or it needed adjustment. It didnt grab at all while in gear. I tried rocking the engine to free it up and got nothing.
Edit.. I'm having troubles uploading pictures. Looks like ill have to do one at a time
