Need Help on Sprocket
I have a 96 F3 and when I went to change the forward sprocket and chain I found I could not loosen the bolt that holds the forward sprocket.
Any ideas on how to loosen the bolt, I tried a electric impact wrench and it didn't work ?

Use one of those handheld blow torches (MAPP gas) and heat the bolt, but for no longer than about a minute or two or else you might melt your output shaft oil seal. When it gets nice and hot, hit it wiht that impact wrench until it breaks free. There could be some locktite on the bolt and the heat should melt it. Otherwise, the bolt is just being stubborn and the heat will aid in its removal. By the way, how much torque does your electric impact deliver? A good air impact might be a better solution.
