I have a 72 Chrysler 707he model #7874
i need help removing the flywheel.. I got the top nut off with help from a buddy holding it while I broke the bolt loose. In what way do I get the flywheel off? I do not have a flywheel removal tool. Guessing any auto parts store would have a universal one? Any help would be great.. The motor has no spark at the plugs, so from a little browsing I've read cleaning the points? Is one of the starting points? Thanks

Has test procedures for your motor.
To remove the flywheel,you need some kind of puller.
Some auto parts stores loan tools.
I use a BIG 3 jaw puller.They sell them at Harbor Freight.Cheap!!!

Some people use a small puller on the 3 screw holes on the top of the motor.
My opinion!!!It's very dangerous to try this way.
Loosen and don't remove the nut.
Install the puller.
Tighten with an impact till you think it's gonna break.
Then hit the center bolt with a hammer.
It should pop off.
If not then tighten some more.
USE GLOVES AND SAFETY GLASSES!!!!
 
the timing belt is coming out to the top of the distributor looks like it connects to the rotary button from under the flywheel, I have correct voltage across everything just no spark at the plugs, i haven't ran the individual tests on the electrical components checking resistance an what not, calling around in the morning to find a boat repair that will even look at fixing this motor or just get it to crank
