Re: Flywheel Removal

[David Stanton]

I had trouble with those 35s and 40s until I bought the OMC puller. I surfed the web until I found a reasonable price. It worked great where generic ones didn’t. I also found it helps to tighten the center bolt on the puller with a 1/2 inch drive air impact wrench (same kind you change tires with) – the impact action seems to help a lot just don’t overdo it if the flywheel is stuck bad – I also use that air impact tool to remove flywheel nuts – you don’t have to hold the flywheel to get the nuts loose! Do not use it to put the flywheel nuts back on,as you can quickly over-tighten and break things.
