BLKTOPTRVL is on a distinguished road
Default Flywheel and EShaft Pulley N&B

I know this has been discussed on the other forum, but I also think we need to build up information here. Besides, I like telling my stories. So...

I could not get the Pulley Bolt, or the flywheel nut to budge.

So, As Ted and others suggested, I decided to set up my compressor (for the first time) and zip those suckers off fast and quick.

Setting up the compressor (8.6scfm @40 PSI, 6.4scfm @90 PSI, 150PSI max, 33 Gal Tank, 2HP running) was cake. My impact is only rated at 300 Ft Lbs. (Got the whole rig at Sears on sale for about $300)

Tried to remove the nut and bolt using the compressor. Zip. Nada. Wouldn't budge.

So, remembering some information gathered a long time ago, I applied heat around the Flywheel nut using a propane torch for about 3-4 minutes (too long?). Came right off.

The front pulley bolt was more stubborn, but after an additional three minutes or so, it also came off. I am guessing none.

I just wonder how much damage (if any) all that heat could have done.
