Is there some kind of special tool for taking off the flywheel nut? I can't get the dang thing to budge.

Put the flywheel into a vise [not to tight or u will damage it] and use an ajustable wrench or the right size socket to get it off

I use the end of a toothbrush to lock the piston into place and then a pair of channel locks with a rag over the flywheel and slowly gently work it off.

OK, thanks guys.

..and in case you lost your vise grips or channel locks, you can get this [link]http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXBDV1&P=7[/link]

Something else u can use to get the flywheel/nut off is a battery terminal puller. U can get them usually at most auto parts stores...that will do the trick usually as well....

I finally got it off. Next time I make an order on tower that's going in my cart, I'll try the battery terminal puller also. Thanks again.
