Same here, no problems at all.

That's exactly what I use on gas or diesel.

Last time I had a Kohler do that, it was a bad condenser. But bad coils do act about the same.

Pretty sure the 660 once subjected to air, it only cures in the absence of air.

Sure hoping it runs great! And, I did NOT know the Vaseline trick....THANK YOU!!

Mine will barely move down to unlock it to shift. A lot of my problem is my fender mount rubbers have gone soft to where fender pan is pushing down onto the shift shaft assembly. Have new rubber isolator mounts I need to install and while pan is off I will clean and lube everything well...

Usually it takes an act of God to even move that lever, so that never came to mind. That reminds me I need to lube my 430's hi lo lever and get it loosened up as it was really tight last time.

Jack rear up with tires off the ground and run her while cycling forward then reverse, and repeat till you purge the air out of the system. May take a few minutes.

Don't know the rod number, but that exceptionally hard rod is commonly called "hardfacing" rod.

Rick, his bench is pristine compared to mine!!

If it were me, yes I'd want them bonded together. I only mentioned painting if easier removal was concerning.

I think if one put a light coat of paint inside the flywheel it would allow flywheel to be pulled free from the crank of needed. The Loctite is really to fill gaps, not to bond parts together.

I'm a little slow as that never occurred to my brainfarting mind!

Good stuff! Have a tube in my little HF toolbox!

Yes, gotta find out that before worries about the crank. But that Loctite 660 will work! If engine can be revived, after tightening flywheel following the 660, put a pipe that will clear the nut and give it a whack with good size hammer. You'll find after that the nut will tighten further...
