Re: Two stuck flywheels

quote Chris_P:

Huh, those 3hps are usually not too bad to get off!

I leave the nut partially on the crank threads, before installing the puller, to protect the crank threads.

Use grade 8 bolts, threaded 7/16 into the flywheel.

That puppy should pop! Tighten, pull up on flywheel, and give puller bolt a rap with hammer. Tighten more, pull up on flywheel, give puller bolt a rap. Maybe leave overnight with pressure on it.

+1 on this. I have several 3 hp (jw-16,jw-17,65 yachtwin,66 yachtwin) and a 2.5 hd-26 which is basically the same, and never had a problem! Seems something isn’t quite right on your engine
