Right-hand thread. Very high
release torques may be necessary
after long periods of operation.
Haha. I've never made a mistake. Well, at least not in the last 5 minutes. I had the blower engine completely apart 6 times trying to figure out why it had low compression. Not until I really cleaned the carbon off the top of the piston did I realize it had a hole in it. The blower would almost start with the hole in the piston.Boy did I have my screwed on wrong on this one after a few restless nights I went to my hand written notes. Hammer your are right about using a pull bar the remove. My notes suggest the fan wheel takes too much inertial to get started with the impact and a pull bar is the way to go.
Boy do I feel like an idiot right now but I admit I was wrong on this one. I reckon I can blame it on old age.
