Just split my case, trying to pull the crankshaft from the case half but on the flywheel mounting side it does not want to budge at all from the case! The impeller side is free, but all my efforts of trying to break free the other side did not prevail. Even tried turning the case upside down, with helper holding the crank from the bottom, and me giving some good wacks with the rubber mallet to the top of the piston rod closest to the flywheel from the top, hoping gravity would help, but that still didn’t work... anyone else come across a tight crank that would separate??

you are not hitting it hard enough.
Maybe use a hoist to hold up the crank so the whole stand is an inch off the floor and hit the case with a rubber mallet. There are just pins and old age holding it in there. You could also use a long pry bar with a pile of rags on the case and put the bar underneath the rod cap. rich |
