I haven't seen one that is knurled like that. Perhaps that's what made it difficult to remove. Glad you got it out.

In the meantime, the pilot bush STILL will not come out of the back of the crankshaft and I am devising plans to get it to move. I love when people say, "Do this and it will just pop out!"

I'm unsure of the Churchill Tool number, but note the calibrated on the 2x4 wedge where the flywheel teeth dug in and locked. Just tap the wedge in the starter hole to immobilize the flywheel, torque down, and remove the highly calibrated tool for later use.

The pressure of grease behind bush should push it out. Another way is to find a thread tap the right size for inside bush and wind it in. The tap will bottom out in flywheel and pull the bush out. If you have a small seal puller with the outside facing arms that could work if there is room for fingers to get behind bush edges. Just a few of many ways. See ya, John B.
