Ok Gang I know that we have covered this subject a hundred times, maybe 101 times but let's do it again for the "Gipper".

I had a nice original Gib Key Removal Tool but when you let your 17 year old grandson out in your shop with his friends tools tend to disappear and now I cannot find the tool. I have spent the last two hours looking for it and no luck. I do not want to drill this gib key out until I have exhausted all other options. The other side gib key came right out with the Gib Key Tool when I removed it last year to get the flywheel off to get some parts to sent to Curt Andree that he needed to reproduce for his engine. Right now I still have a good Gib Key in the flywheel and my mind is blank for ideas. Here is the gib key as of a few minutes ago.

The crankshaft diameter is 2".

Thanks in advance for the help.

Paul
