Default RE: How to remove flywheel from GST

ORIGINAL: RGX Blade

a "Battery terminal Puller" there small can fit in a tool box and Inexpensive....most auto parts stores will carry these....for under 5 bucks.........
usinga pair of "Screwdrivers" yes you can take it off but there is a "Risk" in "Cracking" the block.
as i "Have Seen it Happen"......not something i would advise....it can be done though....

I dont even know you so I am NOT trying to flame you, just trying help by sharing my experiences and keep the hobby safe.
Good call Blade & TRD,

The other benefit in using a puller, when this kind of tight fit is encountered, is that there is no risk of damaging your bearings.
This is another real risk, if using the 2 screwdriver method, due to all the pressure being applied to the block & in turn the bearings, via the crank!

HeadRush ROB.21, Please take this as constructive & not destructive critisim!
