Hi all, a friend of mine had a 55 HP 3202 Hirth engine on his plane, and it seized a piston. He replaced the engine with a new 65 HP 3203 engine. Shortly after that, he passed away, and I am helping his widow sell his plane and the other parts he had. I was going to pull the gearbox off the seized engine, and it doesn't want to come apart. I've done lots of Rotax gearboxes, and there is all kinds of info available for those, but I can't find any info on how to take the Hirth gearbox apart. Don't want to pry and break something you know.... Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, JImChuk
