Post Crank spigot bush
Mine is making a hell of a racket at the moment, and it's getting a bit embarrassing, although I don't *think* it can be doing anything else much harm for now?

I'm assuming heavy and light flywheels use the same sized bush?

I'm also assuming that by the time it's starting squealing it's probably knackered, and will need replacing, rather than a spot of oil? Is it a relatively easy job to do?

The bush is standard for all 2cv6 engines. Citroen had speciel tool to pull out the bush but I bore the bush thin as possible. Then use hacksaw blade to split the thin bush and Voila. Just be very careful not touching the crank shaft

It is a lot easier to hydraulic them out. Find a piece of rod that fits really nicely inside the bush. Even a piece of wooden dowel will do it. Fill the bush up with grease. Insert rod. Hit piece of wood or rod with a hammer and the bush comes out.

as it hold the other end of the input shaft wear in the bush will accelerate the wear to the oil return scroll,and also not help the input bering, as well as increasing clutch judder.

grease and a M12 bolt the method of removal here too
