Help!

I'm not sure if this is in the right section or not, but I am in need of advice. I am in the process of disassembling my motor and have hit a stumbling block. I am having a really hard time removing my cas. I have removed the three bolts holding it on, but can not get the thing to even rotate. Am I missing something here? I have beat on it with a hammer and pried on it. I really don't want to damage anything.

Hitting it with a hammer is not a good idea

Try removing the timing cover with the CAS still attached. Might make it easier

I guess I could have worded it better than beating it with a hammer. Lol. I have been tapping it trying to break it free. I thought it was supposed to rotate freely to adjust timing. I can get it to move at all.

I have seen them go tight in the seal which makes them really hard to pull out. When you get it out, if the seal is still ok, put some rubber grease or similar on the seal and it should make it alot easier to adjust and remove/install
