Flywheel replacement on a K&B 7.5 OB
Could someone tell me the right way to remove the flywheel on a K&B 7.5 OB it is the early one and the stud is stripped, I'm going to order the new flywheel and "bolt" from K&B and replace it.

no need to order a new flywheel once you have the nut off you can place the flywheel in a vice and tap the bolt and it should release i usually leave the bolt on loose so that i dont damage any threads but you wont hace that problem

A small two jaw gear puller works well also to assure you don't mark your flywheel up. Doesn't usually take much as mentioned to get it off.
