"Does anyone know where I can find a socket for the flywheel nut on a 1990 200hp evinrude. It appears to be a 1 5/16, but the O.D. on my 3/4" drive socket is to big to fit in the hole. Can't find a 1/2" drive anywhere. Is this a dealer tool?"

"u need a thin wall socket"

Which you can obtain my skimming a standard one on a lathe if you know anyone who has one.
 
Thanks everyone for the advice

Thanks everyone for the advice. I did what Vics suggested. I took my 1 7/16 3/4" drive down to my local machine shop and had them turn it on a lathe. It cost me $10 compared to $34. If anyone runs into the same problem take your socket to the shop and turn down the O.D. to 1.925.

did it work? just took off my flywheel on a 1990 rude 175XP and it was a 1 1/4" nut. friend had a thin wall and it came right off with a little wd40 and a breaker bar.

"Yep it worked. I used an automtive puller, was a little nervous about damaging the flywheel, just came inside. Does anyone know what kind of epoxy should be used for re-affixing my magnets to the flywheel?"

""JB Weld...any automotive store....."---- YEP,i had to order some magnets ,and since i was ordering,i got the OEM epoxy,and nothing special,not even made by BRP...i,should and will next time use a product like jb weld..there is nothing special about BRP's secret sauce epoxy."
