looks like i have a bad ring gear on the flywheel. just pulled the starter for inconsistent engagement about every fourth to fifth try, the pinion is badly worn but the ring gear is half gone. how bad is the motor to pull out? thanks in advance mark
 
Easy, 4 bolts, a few wires and hoses.
Remove the engine mount bolts and all the hoses and wires. With the cab up, hook a chain between the two lift loops on the head, use a hoist and lift the engine from the chain, it will slide back and out. Its really that easy. Installing is the same in reverse, but you will be best to have a helper to align the coupler to the pump. Inspect and grease the U-joints before it goes back in. Much easier to grease when its out of the machine!
