    Stuck sprocket cover

    Ok, so I'm trying to pull the motor to clean and paint over the winter and I'm walking thru the steps in the manual when I hit a snag. I'm trying to get the screws loose for the sprocket cover and they are not moving a bit. So far I've hit them with PB Blaster multiple times, hitting the end of the screwdriver, but nothing. This is the first time I've dealt with stuck screws that I can't get to with vise grips like the carb screws. Any recommendations?

    you need a hand held impact driver. that will shift them.

    Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!

      I run a business that ultrasonically cleans/rebuilds vintage motorcycle carbs & I absolutely swear by my impact driver. One of my most cherished tools & oh yeah, one of the cheapest to buy.
