I have this MC-17 scooter with 139qmb that I bought used and I just installed a bbk. Trying to fine tune it and when I removed the variator, the ramp plate is stuck or fused to the crank shaft. I am thinking of taking a torch to the plate and heat it up. I also don't want to bend it by trying to yank it out.
Thoughts on how to get it off?

Tap it with something on one of the ends to make it turn on the shaft.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to tap it to turn on the shaft. The shaft would turn also. I sprayed a little PB Blaster and left it. Came back and was able to wiggle it out, again adding some PB Blaster as I wiggled it out. It was on there so tight I couldn't put it back on. So, had some fine metal sand paper and rolled a piece up to fit inside the circle and spun the plate. Now it can move, but I was careful not to leave much play.

I hope someone can help, I have the same issue. Whereas I understand you filed the facing plate hole a bit, I’m not sure mine is that simple. The crankshaft has a small increase in diameter close to the engine- this is what my plate is ‘wedged’ on. It’s difficult to move anywhere along the shaft- any ideas? Many thanks, Vince. |
