Hey guys!!
So, Ive got a little project going on. My mom has an older BCS 716 garden tiller with a problematic briggs engine, and tonight I'm trying to remove that so I can put a brand new Honda GX on it instead.
I got the engine itself off, but on the end of the crankshaft is this doohickey that looks like some part of a rocket or a missile and reads "DANGER STRONGLY WOUND SPRINGS DO NOT DISASSEMBLE, SEND COMPLETE ASSEMBLY TO BCS SERVICE"
I've never seen anything like it before.
I don't want to disassemble it, I just want to pull it off and stick it on the new engine.
There looks to be just one bolt holding it to the crankshaft, but Im afraid that bolt also holds it on and if I loosen it, it will fly off and kill someone. How do you safely remove this thing?
Any thoughts/advice? Im hoping this is a self contained unit and that bolt only holds it to the crankshaft, nothing more. What the heck is this thing? Some kind of a slip clutch?
