1986 200 ETXJ flywheel removal

[Raystownboater]

I'm looking for a flywheel puller for a yamaha 200 etxj I bought a universal puller at harbor freight, that attaches to the outside of the flywheel, which didn't even budge it. I watched a few YouTube videos that showed the puller attached to the 3 threaded holes next to the shaft, but they dont tell you where to get that specific puller. Any help is greatly appreciated

Tapping on the top of the pulling bolt sometimes helps. Tap and turn. Tap and turn. Using an impact gun on the pulling bolt sometimes helps.

I doubt anything from Harbor Freight is man enough to get the job done. See if Auto Zone or similar store has a loaner tool available. You might need to get your own metric bolts that screw into the flywheel.

and be very careful how far you screw those bolts into the flywheel.
some are open holes and will let you screw them all the way thru into parts under the wheel damaging them

Hopefully no damage was done using a 3 arm puller on the outside of the flywheel.

Autozone has the tool, same one that pulls the harmonic balancer on a car. Same deal ,3 threaded holes, and a very stout rig.
