Bro Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 I am selling an EA81 engine in Australia, and just wanted to know if it's normal practice to sell with, or without the clutch ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonwingsubaru Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 i know around here people usually will just leave the flywheel or pressureplate on it depending on what type of tranny of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballitch Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 i bought my motor with nothing on the back of it, not like i needed the EJ clutch and pres. plate.........or did I? but as far as im concerned, you paid for the motor, not the clutch and pressure plate, the price should be prorated accordingly. ~Josh~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Sorry if this comes off as sounding greedy, but I wouldn't include any of the clutch components with the engine. To my knowledge, junkyards, rebuilders, and dealers generally don't include it with the engine. If they want that stuff, ask for an extra fifty bucks (my apologies for not being aware of the exchange rate to AU dollars). If I'm not mistaken, one of the purposes of selling things is to make money, and making money entails charging according to what you are selling.

Bro Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 Excellent replies guy's......the clutch is coming OUT I thought I might hang onto it as a spare, or sell seperate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TROGDOR! Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Ditto on what Snowman said. I work for a salvage yard, and we NEVER include clutches and flywheels. A used clutch isn't worth jack... but a flywheel, we can get some money out of. Up to $350 for certain ones (dual-mass truck diesel flywheel, that is).

(remember newbie here) yes, you should remove it yes, it is the big cogged thingo - I can't remember how many bolts hold it in - but they are all at the center of it woo hoo - post 500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Definitely remove the flywheel. That can be worth some $$$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
85Sub4WD Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Definitely remove the flywheel. That can be worth some $$$. not only that, but if you have to do a clutch, you can have the spare turned while your car is still operational, allowing a clutch change with limited downtime spare parts are a GOOD thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
