Happy to report that my homemade “Popper” worked today.
I put a short chunk of 2×4 in the vise to support one side of
the flywheel, and held the other side of the flywheel via hand.
It took 5 decent whacks before the flywheel popped loose.
It appears that no harm was done.
A little long, and the hole drilled and tapped too deep.
Better…..
Hopeful on the coils…. points are fouled, so
hopefully that’s the “no spark” reason.
Prepare to be boarded!
