    I’d be surprised if removing the flywheel this second time will be challenging.  If you torqued it down properly after removing it initially….I bet it will remove easily this time.  Flywheel torque is important.  Not too loose or too tight.

    Electric or pneumatic impact tools should not be used to tighten flywheel nuts.  Maybe someone here can provide the OP with the correct torque for his model motor.

    Yes indeed, avoid impact guns for sure when retorquing the flywheel.   But, the guns can be useful for removing the nut, or tightening the OMC puller.
