Re: Advice for cutting a flywheel off

Yes, Jerry, the bolt snapped while using the OMC puller. I snapped one of the bolts that came with the puller, replaced all 3 with stronger bolts from Fastenal and snapped one of them. I also tried the impact gun and whacking the puller center shaft with a hammer while it was under tension. I don’t recall if I snapped one of the bolts while using the impact gun or a breaker bar. Naturally, I’m hoping that, IF I’m successful, that BobW will be correct with regard to the taper.
I’m hoping to take another try at it today. I’ll report back this evening if I do. Stay tuned 😉
