I posted in the chainsaw section, but no bites...... Lots of 090 guru's here no doubt.
I have an 090 I'm trying to remove the clutch from. I have the service manual. It says; remove the nut, large washer and the smaller washer / ring from the crankshaft, pull clutch away.
Well, I've done all of that, but the clutch is on there solid. There really is nothing to *grab* on to be able to really pull, no holes to mount a puller. Made a few feeble attempts grabbing the shoes with needle nose pliers, but the shoes move and pliers have poor purchase.......essentially no pulling power. Prying with a screwdriver is going to damage the shoe linings.......
Heat?
Remove the shoes while the clutch is still in the drum, then attach a puller to the spider?
What method works for you?
Thanks.
