The easiest way without a puller is to loosen the nut, take a large ball pein hammer and place it ball end down on the tip of the carnk (should be a drilled place there) and take a heavy (2 lb. or better) and strike the flat face on the upper side of the ball pein with it. One to three blows will loosen it. Do NOT strike the flywheel, it will break the magnets toose. A prybar under the edge only is allowed.

20 thousandths of an inch will suffice. Fairly forgiving ..........loosen the coil and place a standard business card between flywheel and coil. Allow magnetic force from flywheel to pull together and sandwich card between flywheel and coil. Tighten coil. This will work fine.

Why wont your Briggs and Stratton 4 point 5 hp mower engine not start after removing and reinstalling flywheel cover?
check to see if it is getting spark . you probably have the "kill mechanism " installed wrong . It's probably grounding out the ignition system. The "kill mechanism" is the cable operated mechanism that goes from the handle with a cable to the pull start housing . Its either improperly installed or out of adjustment.

How do you change the pull cord on a Briggs and Stratton mower engine when it appears the housing is riveted?
I'm doing this now. i drilled through the rivets. started with an 1/8th drill bit and a little oil on top of the rivet. the problem is going to be finding replacement screws that will hold the starter cage once you have replaced the cord. some Briggs and stratton engineer needs to be taken to the wood shed.

first make sure the safety switch(pull-bar on handle},if that fails,check and make sure the ignition coil is in the proper distance from (and clean}the flywheel.if that fails,providing coil is plugged in,the coil might be shot.don't forget to inspect the plug wire.happy harvesting. The engine does have to turn 600 rpms to create a spark, distance from the coil to the flywheel, .010
