Hints and tricks needed - flywheel

Something that sometimes works for me is to slightly tighten it more.
Only slightly though.
Ive used this technique using impact, power bar, etc.
Sometimes this breaks the bond.

Or, apply some heat.

Good luck.

Thanks for this ... I hope I get to the point where I need to know it ... so far my problem has been trying to stop the flywheel from turning as I apply handheld torque to it. I'll know how all these suggestions work this weekend as I go back to the storage unit and try them out.

I also bought a 12-volt impact gun that plugs into the cigarette lighter that supposedly generates 271 ft lbs of torque - I can hardly conceive of this being true, but worth a try I guess.
