I am trying to replace the gaskets on my \´81 Honda CM400T. I was able to remove the cylinder head and I\´m trying to remove the cylinder itself. The problem is, the thing won\´t budge. I followed the specs in the maintenance and repair manual but the darn thing won\´t budge. I\´ve tried everything I could think of (heating and cooling it, WD40, prying, using a crowbar with body weight, and so on) and it won\´t move at all. There is a lot of oil residue from oil leakage which is why I\´m trying to replace the gaskets. Any suggestions as to how to get this thing off?? Thanks for your help!
