Have you tried the new Drafts feature yet? I just lost a long message today and learned my lesson. It is a good idea to save a draft of any long post you are writing. You can then just keep writing and keep saving a draft, knowing you have a backup if there is a glitch. The draft is automatically deleted when you post the message.

Can anyone tell me please the dimensions of a flywheel clutch removal tool for my A31 engine?
Specifically, what is the thread and diameter of the tool needed on the flywheel?
I can attempt to then make a tool, but if anyone has such a tool they can lend me or sell to me....

Without having seen one, its a bigger version of this ?
Or possibly a 3 jawed one.

Its the centre bit that a whack shocks the flywheel loose thats the important bit...

The LDMCC sold these at one time and there ought to be some floating about, in the UK at least.

It is a 1.445 x 26tpi thread.

Here is a post on the dimensions to machine the extractor.

It is for the EW, but the A31 uses the same thread size.

Aha, an extractor of entirely a different variety.

Thanks for this, and the help by email from Roy Staunton pointing to another possible extractor method - much appreciated. 
I'm also in contact with LDMCC pre war spares officer to see if any remain lurking in his stock.
