Reply To: 1915 Evinrude Row Boat

Tubs,

I didn’t realize that there is a collar covering the shear pin. I will attempt to slowly pry the collar off the end of shaft this weekend.

As for the fly wheel I cleaned around the threads of the drive shaft, at the flywheel, and could now see the key way. The closer I looked it looks the thread, the length through the thicknees of the flywheel, on the shaft had sheared or slightly twisted so the key way is no longer straight:( The key seem to be below the sheared or twisted shafts key way. I am thinking the key is below the flywheels key way, but not sure. I am afraid what I am looking at to remove the flywheel on my Evinrude 1915 if ever.

Sincerely thanking you for responding, Bill in MN
