    Hello Tubbs & Joe,

    I’ve not given up on removing the flywheel, just stepped back for a bit. I’ll try using the knockout tool again before doing anything else.

    As I see it I have tw0 options.

    1. Try using the knockout tool and strike it a little harder.  My concern here is damaging the crankshaft. How hard can one strike the tool?  Has anyone ever broke a crankshaft when striking?
    2. Cut the flywheel off to avoid any damage to the crankshaft.

    My offer stands on anyone wanting to step up and give it a smack!

    Advice, comments welcome.

    Thanks
