Reply To: Evinrude Cub Flywheel Removal

You need to make up a flywheel popper.
Basically a nut that screws onto the crankshaft with
a bolt on the top of the nut. Some people weld up
a double nut, but I got by on this motor with a single
nut, threaded half way onto the crank and bolt, the
snugged up good.

Then lift the motor by the flywheel while someone smacked
the bolt with a hammer. I was all alone, so I got by lifting
the motor by the flywheel with a clamp.
You want to lift the flywheel before you smack it to avoid
damage to the insides of the motor.
