Default RE: Taking Out Engine

it has to do with the metalurgical properties reacting to heat. When meatal is heated up and cooled it expands and contracts, If you heat the metal it should contract and allow the bolts to loosen, You have to be very careful when doing this because any plastic pieces that are attached to the chassis may melt if you apply heat for too long.
