Puller question

[workdog]

Im working on a 04 TNG Venice (Minarelli clone engine) and need to remove the flywheel so I can remove the oil pump gear. I was wondering if a 3 jaw bearing puller would work? I have a steering wheel puller, tried it, didn't work.

I read online that I need a 21MMX1.0 LH puller but cant wait for shipping and dont really want to buy one at the moment(rather spend $ on a new scoot than tools). Would a auto parts store have this tool for rent? Like Autozone, Napa, or Orilley?

Would any of these work?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure if I'd be comfortable with the jaw type pullers on a flywheel.
I'd be afraid they might distort the flywheel, but hey I've improvised before

They might work without damage depending on how stuck the flywheel is, I've had some that would slip right off & some that are really on there

This is what you need


Got mine from pfs, but its Pit posse brand and available directly from them

Much better off with the puller like Skip posted. I have tried jawed pullers on a GY6 150's flywheel with no success (because the threads were stripped inside the flywheel). Not saying it couldn't work, but i didn't like it much.

i know guys that regreted using a jaw puller instead of the proper puller when they needed to wait for a new flywheel

if your into scoots tools are a must it may sit in your toolbox for a while but you will need it again some day

but then again you are talking to a guy that has 3 toolboxes in his garage

Does anyone know if Autozone or a auto parts store rent this tool?
At this moment, I cant buy one online and need one fast.

i doubt they will have one you can rent
but what kind of relation do you have with the local scooter shops i know i can borrow or swing by and use tools at one local shop

Im pretty good with one uptown (In fact, Im going up there this weekend to maybe buy a scooter from them) but I dont know if they will have one. Ill ask him.

Would this work? It says its the tool but looks different than the others.
