The flywheel should just be a friction fit. You can use an inexpensive wheel pulling tool-about $10-$15. If it is not rusted in place you might be able to remove it by using a pry bar to push up on the flywheel from underneath, not too hard, then tap the wheel with a hammer to work in off. Helps to rotate the wheel to pry up on opposite sides so it doen't get cocked to one side and jammed.

How do you replace alternator on a Briggs and stratton engine?

For most Briggs and Stratton engines the charging system is under the flywheel. You will have to remove all the shields that cover the top of the engine and the flywheel and then remove the flywheel itself. Once the flywheel is off the stator is exposed. Depending on what model you have there will be a series of screws that hold it to the block. Just unplug the wire connector and remove the screws and it will come off with a little wiggling. Make sure that all the magnets on the bottom side of the flywheel are in place and secure or replacing the stator will not do you any good.
