searay175 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 In trying to remove the flywheel on my 85 ty350 I could not get the flywheel puller to thread in and I know it's a left hand thread. So I bought a new puller just in case I had a bad spot on the old one. same results. Does anyone have a alternate method for these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsome_al Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 I have, as a 'last resort', managed to remove a TY250 mono using 2 hammers (1 in each hand) striking the outer-rim simultaneously. The resulting 'shock' was enough to free the taper. TAKE GREAT CARE TO STRIKE TOGETHER THOUGH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betarick Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 No use of hammers buy a thread file and clean up flywheel threads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g14gav Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Same happened with my ty175, couldnt get the puller to thread in! Took a couple of hours with the puller but managed to hold the flywheel and forced the puller to thread! Didn't wanna force it but it did rethread it's self eventually! Wd40 an get a friend to hold the flywheel with an on oil filter thingy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use a small wire brush to clean out the internal threads of the flywheel hub, blow out with compressed air and grease the threads on the puller.

Jon There seem to be some duff pullers around just now. I bought one that would not go in more than half a thread. The old one (lost) and another borrowed one fit perfectly.
