YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE CLUTCH OFF FIRST!

I was wondering about that. I was thinking where's the nut holding flywheel on?

It's under back half of aluminum clutch housing still stuvk on flywheel.

Parts diagram shows nut and two threaded holes for gear puller.

I've already got a bolt type gear puller!

Let you know how it goes.

Thanks!

You don't have to take the clutch off to pull the flywheel...:no: Should be one big nut holding the flywheel on....its right on the outside of the flywheel....but some have a ratcheting device that actually is the nut. You got any pics of your flywheel on the engine ?

If your flywheel is set up like this Briggs then there is no nut that you can take off with a wrench.

Heres a Briggs with a flywheel nut and cup.

It's a 70's-80's era 2 hp,

It's the rope starter clutch that needs to come off to get to flywheel nut.

Thanks!

Heres a thread that might help you out ! This is your flywheel nut...I think....If so it will come loose with a blunt chisel and a hammer.

@ OND: As a twelve-year-old, honing my fine touch, I broke the tabs off a couple of those starter gizmos using your method. It works, but you need to be careful.

Try this. Everyone loves new tools.

Now that's some cool tools Tom ! Thanks for posting them.

I usually would use these two areas to tap it loose....then unscrew it by hand.

Thank you!

Took a second look at parts diagram and clutch housing is where

nut would be.

Thanks!

Found out that clutch housing is LEFT HAND threads.

Sort of like the old cars with left hand threads on one side to keep lug nuts tight.

Good thing I found that out before starting to get this off.

Thanks!

Glad you got it figured out.. :thumbsup:

Tapped on clutch housing awhile today.

It stayed on.

Will use handheld sledge and bigger chisel next time.

Will use 3in1 oil too.Have wd40 on there but it may need something a little more

penetrating.

Have to look for #6 bearing too.

Thanks!

I don't remember there being left hand threads on this part.....but I haven't tapped one off in years....BECAREFUL.

Where did you get this information? My son and I have removed many and we have NEVER had one with "left hand threads".
