I recently got my first "project saw", an MS 460. It is dirty, the cylinder is off and the engine seemed to be locked (presumed bearing failure). To my surprise, the P&C look good.
However, as I was taking it further apart, I believe the problem may be just the clutch bearings, as the clutch is not sitting flush, and will not easily come off even after the clip and washer have been removed. I did get it to move back & forth slightly with a pair of channel locks on it, but it does not want to come off.
Anyone have any ideas on how to remove it w/o breaking anything?
Thanks.
