A bit more about removing and installing crankshHaft/reed block assembly
1) Nut and bolt jacks are installed thru openings on either side of carburetor opeing. Cover plate has to be removed
2) Bolt in side of crankcase screws in to reed block. Remove before pressing and replace after crankshaft is installed.
3) When replacing reed block on crankshaft the screw hole and carburetor passage have to line up,,,
4) Small hole in reed block is key to aligning reed block so that
thread in reed block and bolt hole in crankcase are spot on.
