late at night game tomorrow... need bolt help

lawgikplaya2 · 02-02-2013, 02:38 AM

I have a darq with a super charged engine. It appears I have the disconnect bolt however it is pretty much stuck on there. I have no idea how to get it off. It appears as though its loctited on in which case I will be very very unhappy with the seller. Is there something I am missing? The bolt should just slide off correct? it also appears that its slightly off center. The gun was running fine but I went to adjust my reg settings and i cleaned it and lubed it (outside only) gun wouldnt cylce. Any late night techs out there?

or is there another way to get the engine apart completely without removing the bold from the ram shaft?

ok got the gun to cycle but still cant get the bolt off, which is making it hard to re lube and check all the orings ( now we have a barrel leak cause ive been putting my hands all over it trying to get it to work) any help on getting the bolt off would be appreciated,

cheers!

I don't think the supercharged kits used threaded bolts, but i suppose it's possible. if it's got lock tite on it, use a little bit of heat from a hear dryer, or use some muscle.

The QD bolts I had just slid off. You should be able to see a notch on them that the rod slides into an locks into place. Sometimes it's a little bit tricky to get it detached, but after a min or saw it was pretty obvious.

It looks just like the other QD bolts. It doesnt make any sense to be structured this way if it was threaded. I will try getting some heat on it and seeing if I cant get it off. Makes it tricky to lube the poppit when I cant get the can off.

Take the engine and lay the bolt on a hard wooden surface, and with the ram pushed in all the way and the slot facing down use your hand to hit the edge of the canister.

Thanks for the help. I ended up just giving it to a tech. I didnt want to do anything too drastic ha ha.

Did they teach you how it's done?

You gave it to gabe? LOL

No there is a traveling tech at my local field. I go tomorrow to see if it works. I will get him to show me how to get it off. But I am prety sure that it was something unusual going on. It shouldnt have been that difficult. It is called a "quick" disconnect...
