Guess I should have started at the big inning. Bought this motor from a guy that said it was to big for him to work on. He said it had spark on one cylinder. So I proceeded to remove the flywheel. One of the three bolt holes on the flywheel had been drilled and taped to 5/16. (Should have been my first clue). So I proceeded to set up my harmonic balancer to do the pull. One of the 1/4 20 holes let loose. Taped that one bigger and tried again. Little bit of force and the flywheel started to lift from one side. Cracked. I do use the proper tool. I have seen tight flywheels before but never like this one. Is it possible that the key has shifted. I’m thinking the only way now is to sergically remove it.
