Sometimes I wished I smoked. Then, when something was just beyond my present
state of thinking, I could just sit back, roll a cigarette and let a
solution appear out of the smoke. But I don't smoke.
SO: a question to the list: removing the prop. Actually just the spool from
the flange as the prop can stay attached (it's alternator belt changing
time). The spool is pretty well wedged onto the crankshaft prop flange. I
can think of ways to get it off but they all sound scary, including using
the flange bolts with a brass rod between them and the ends of the prop
bolts, and pushing the spool off as the bolts are inched out, going round
and round. Sounds like it might put too much stress on the prop flange
"nuts". Any ideas?
