Default Re: OMC Flywheel Magnets

Skool's I wish I had read this a week ago!!

I'm working on Merc 90hp 3clylinder and the flywheel lost a few magnets. I bought another 3cylinder flywheel w/ the same casting number 261-9007-c2 off ebay (Mint condition) but the tapered keyed hole for the crankshaft was too small for the crank.

I was wondering about the inner circle of magnets and what their function is . . . and actually talked to a machine shop about reaming out the center hole. After pricing it out It made more sense to buy a used one off ebay for $50 . . . had I known . . . I would have tried to pull the magnets off the good flywheel and glue them on the old one.
