[HotToddyTipUp]

My Strike Master Mag 3 Plus just went down and I'm trying to break it down and see what the problem is and i cant get the flywheel off need a puller do you guys know where i could get one locally really don't want to buy it online. Or if you guys have any tips to getting it off it has been really stubborn. Thanks in advance, Happy fishing!

alot of the big name auto parts stores will rent them out for a small fee, call around....

[HotToddyTipUp]

Better question how the heck do I get this thing off?

[dan z]

have no idea, but I do know that any tecuseh service desk can help you out. might have to ask around I know that c/s supply and gaffers here in town work on them

[SpecialK]

Autoparts store will have the puller. The flywheel determines how to pull it off. If there are threaded holes near the shaft you use bolts with the puller to get it off. If it doesn't have those threaded holes, the puller will have arms with a flange on the bottom that go on the outside edge of the flywheel to pull it off. Really easy job either way but you need the right puller.

What happened to it that you feel that you need to pull the flywheel other then no spark?

[HotToddyTipUp]

I got it off used a block of wood and a hammer, popped right off. I think the mother is seized up trying to get in side and see what was up. Turns out the piston is frozen in there but it looks good when I look through the exhaust so I got her soaking with penetrating fluid any other ideas?

[leech~~]

Did you find it seized when you went to start it this year or did it happen when you were running it? What was your oil mix level?

She maybe toast?

[HotToddyTipUp]

Found it like this I'm going to let it soak for a day and see what happens. Anyone need a 8in blade Haha.

Um, I could use another 8" bottom auger bit and blade if the price is like cheap! It maybe better that it stuck cold then when running hot. You maybe able to get her loose and work the rings back in to shape with some heavy oil for a while if you do.

a drive to their excellent customer service shop in big lake would have probably saved you time in the long run....

The motor is locked up tight I think it is trash

I once freed up a locked up lawnmower. Sprayed oil in spark plug hole, stuck a rod in the spark plug hole, had someone pull on starter rope while I hit the rod with a hammer. Freed up the pistion and ran for several years before the self-propel drive train broke. Motor still runs though.

Huuum, I thought maybe I had asked you about that back a few days ago when you were still trying to fix it and I was trying to help out? Oh well. It was yours to do what ever with.
