Default What is the logic of banging DOWN on a crankshaft to remove aflywheel?

The ONLY way to remove this type of Briggs& Stratton flywheel is to tap
the pre-drilled holes and lift up with a two-bolt harmonic balancer puller,
the lifting force being near the center of the flywheel and the indented
tip of the crankshaft.


WRONG WRONG WRONG again. That is not the only way. Actually, it's not
a way at all. Those holes are not tapped, so therefore a puller can't
be used.

rest of the drivel snipped
