Flywheel

[Smokestack]

Tryin to install my timing plate and cannot get the flywheel to budge. Yes i have the bolt off and the right tool. My question is should i leave it under pressure with the puller? Would that hurt anything? I have read and read and tried tapping the bolt and everything. Nothing is working so i soaked it down again with oil. So should i just keep doing that or keep the remover tight as well?

i just had the same problem yesterday I just left under pressure and soaked it with liquid wrench than used a cheater bar and slowly worked it. I know its scary you mite strip threads or screw up crank shaft, just take your time it'll come.

Hit the puller with a mallet not a small hammer....

sometimes those flywheels can be a bitch! Experienced it myself, had the thing in a press and it still wouldnt come off!

find a safe way to put heat to the flywheel taper. might have to go with just a heat gun, or put the heat to the puller. make absolutely sure the puller is in the threads real good. if it ddoesn't pop, loke it should once it gets hot enough, then tap the puller strait tward the crank. watch out as it might jump good, but the magnets should keep it in place.
