Gland nut stuck!!!

Postby blackthree4me » 11 Thu Jun, 2009 12:21 pm

any tricks to getting one off?

I just broke my breaker bar last night trying to get it off
that baby is on there :P

I guess my next plan is to weld on a socket to a big bar? :lol:

what about heat?

What are you using to hold the flywheel? I've heard a flywheel lock can break the case. I would think that would be especially true if you were trying to get off a stuck one.

What happened to your motor BTW?
