I needed to remove the Sachse ignition on my 3C to get at the starter clutch.
However, the small 4mm grub screws holding the ignition rotor to the crankshaft had been loctited and would not budge. I wanted to heat the screws, but the flame on my propane torch is too big and blunt, so I decided use a small butane torch. This gives a pinpoint flame, allowing the heat to be focused on the screw. Worked beautifully.
