As above or put the bottom pulley back on and give it a tap with a rubber mallet

in the finest traditions of png bodgery.. connect the starter & the flywheel then hook up a battery......it'll come out alright..... lol


just knock it with a hammer & lump of wood.. remember these cranks can cope with hundreds of hp, so you & a knocking stick will struggle to shag it
