I just pulled the old 16hp from my 6x6 and have to pull flywheel to change stator. In the process of doing something else I broke one ear off the flywheel...that is when I called it a night and put my hammer down gently and walked away. Good thing I have an extra flywheel...just have to get the patients to go back at it and try and get the old one off now....
Still debating on if I should swap it out for the 16hpe duromax???????
Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.

Well pulled the flywheel and found the culprit.... a bolt... better than a blown motor but it did mess up the stator and flywheel magnets...
if i'm going to replace the flywheel and stator should i replace the magneto's too?
I think racerone3 said he has a flywheel. He is a good guy and trusted forum member. I would check with him
Thanks for the recommendation Drew. We have been in contact, but I have been a bit slow to reply. Just started the new job and working ~100 hours a week... tis the season. Hopefully we can get everything nailed down and I will have parts headed to fastEd on Saturday.... I know what it's like to have a machine down and be waiting on that one little part!
photo attachment is what I have for you Ed
