For almost a week I have been trying to remove the clutch on the input of the odyssey trans. And it will not come off. I have soaked it with pb blaster drilled and tapped the holes and used a steering wheel puller with no luck. I put a torch to it and more penetrating oil still no luck. I finally broke down in desperation and attempted to make a relief cut on the clutch itself and filled with penetrating oil. Another couple days with no more luck I did what I knew I shouldn’t and threw it in the press, it finally moved about a half inch but now won’t budge, and of course I put a small crack in the cover. I’m out of ideas and patience...do I have any options besides a new input shaft and transmission cover?
