I will never convert another honda to electric start. Honda used lock tight on the flywheel nut. Impact had to work to get it off. I have never seen lock tight on a flywheel, had I known, I would have used a little heat. Good thing they had 3 places to attach a gear puller or I would have never have removed the flywheel. The new flywheel had to be drilled and tapped so I could use a gear puller in the future. As you can see, I never thougth of removing the metal filings, which ended up on all 3 magnets. The only way to remove the starter is to pull the flywheel to get to the starter bolts.
The biggest problem was the starter. I had to drill the aluminum plate out. Then the factory hole, where the starter goes, was 4+ mm too small. Call guy where I got starter kit from and he said that I had to use a dremmel to enlarge it. That took a day.
The good news is that the engine started on the first crank. Pressure washer has sat for almost a year.
I would advise if you plan to convert over to electric, make sure the starter will fit the factory hole.
