replacing starter gears

[Frizn]

i've pulled off the side case of my 140 lifan..... does anyone know how to undo the clutch shaft and crank shaft nuts????? as they are not any set imperial or metric size

not sure about that bit I think you will have to split the casing too. still not 100% on that tho

the guy from mayland said you don't have to... like i can see the gears i just have to get the clutch and the wat looks like a balancer for the crank off there is 2 nuts on em but it looks like you need a special tool...!

i used an impact driver to get the nuts of mine.or a hammer and a big screw driver

First off, Remove the 4 screws that hold a plate on the end of the crank. Behind that plate is a toothed nut. Use a screwdriver and rubber mallet to take that off. (if you are creative, you can take a big socket and cut it to fit the nut and it works great). Once that nut is off, you can remove the balancer part of the crank. Now you can get to the clutch basket. Remove the 4 bolt on the clutch basket and be sure you mark where the go back. Take the plate and the 4 springs out and now you can get to the nut. Its also toothed so get the screwdriver and hammer again. Loosen that nut up and you're good. Now when you pull the clutch basket off do it all in one piece. The plates can't get mixed up. Its an easy easy thing to do if you take your time and watch were things go.
Good luck
