A Modified Flywheel Puller use to access points on 70 Chrysler, 35 HP.

1. I welded extensions to an existing puller to eliminate excess wt. and have strength. It worked!

2. The aluminum bar works well holding the flywheel. Please tell me the flywheel torque spec?

3. Is it normal to have an oil vapor/residue in and around points area or is a bad seal causing this?

4. I?m wondering if I used too much oil in the past trying to get the flywheel off to cause problem?

5. Would it be wise to degrease with a brush and use compressed air to dry and observe again soon?

6. I had not noticed any ill running affects but should I have from the vapor on the point?s contacts?

7. If a seal is needed in the 1970 engine that I have not replaced and owned since 1985, Is It A Pain?

Thanks,

CHRYSLER FORCE OUTBOARD REPAIR MANUALS 1966-1999 CD is not the easiest and best reference compared to my Chrysler 35 HP Manuel I had in 1986. I thought it would be just as good or better and easy to use. WRONG! I guess you can say it?s better than no reference if you find what you need.

I need info on checking /replacing the seal below my ignition points on my 1970 Chrysler 35HP (due to sign of oil vapor on the points and in the area). Most of all, I need info on removing the plate the points are mounted on. I replaced the points and condensers about 1986 after my 1985 purchase. I have averaged 5-8 short fishing trips per summer that I would estimate 4-6 hours of running time at the most per year. The points are not pitted or burned and no ?very bad? ill affects of starting and running but with the vapor the points are not clean. Below the plate was a little very dark grease vs the light oil look on the points and in the area.

I degreased and cleaned the area and dressed points of all the signs of oil etc off today. I plan to run the motor good (3-6 miles) and go back in to see the results. My excessive grease on all moving joints on the motor might be a contributor. Is it no doubt the seal is bad on a motor this old if it?s never been changed?

Thanks
