I know, it’s strange… As I said, on my other motors I’ve never had any problems getting the flywheel off.
I should have left the nut on the crank threads indeed, but as I had never used a puller before, I forgot to put the nut back on. This time I did leave the bolt on there to protect the crankshaft. I’ve also put a lot of WD-40 on the crankshaft and also in the hole above the flywheel key.
1/4-20 grade 8 bolts are impossible to get here, so instead I use some old normal 1/4-20 bolts.
