Having just paid a fortune to have my starter motor reconditioned I have decided to overhaul the starter freewheel assembly / clutch on my RGA. Can anyone advise where I can buy the puller to remove the magnetic flywheels etc. so I can dismantle the freewheel assembly or if they are unobtainable can anyone help by lending me one.
I live in Lancashire.
Seems to disengage OK at the moment but there is some drag, which turns the starter cog.
Any advice would be gratefully received regarding sourcing one and any difficulties I am likely to face during the overhaul.
Thanks.

A simple M16x1.5mm bolt does the job. If you can't source one, use the front axle...

Just dont hit it too hard othewise you will then bugger your chrome
As Piet says a M16 x 1.5 bolt is a better option then you can use a socket and get some more torque on it if very tight and then a slight rap with a hammer on the end of the head and the sucker should just fall off.
Biggest trick of the job is to get the rollers to stay in place when you reassemble the flywheel in... I usually use a liberal amout of grease to hold them in place. then slightly turn the gear when installing.
