I use PB Blaster on each of the bolts, and carefully backed them out slowly (SS bolts, steel one piece flange), which worked well after waiting a day or so after applying PB Blaster. One loose, the flange rotated without much trouble, but I didn't remove entirely due to clearance issues, so I aborted my plan of removing the transmission. Cleaned up threads on flange and bolts with tap & die and re-installed with nickel anti-seize. PB Blaster is my top choice for penetrant, having used it successfully on many very stuck fasteners over the years. -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com<mailto:shawngwri...@gmail.com> S/V Callisto, 1974 C&C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto On Wed, May 20, 2020 at 1:29 PM John Christopher via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: All, Thanks for all of your gracious feedback, approaches, and experiences. Checked to see if there were multiple set screws, etc. everything looks good from that standpoint. Removal continues to be an issue. I left the puller on the coupler with pressure. Put some penetrating oil in the set screw holes and shaft entry, taped Over holes, and rotated shaft. Said an “our father” Prayer and left for a day. I’ll be back at the boat tomorrow. Next consideration will be cutting and replacing shaft and coupler :(. Launch is approaching fast with access to marinas now open... Wanna go sailing :). /John On May 20, 2020, at 9:24 AM, Bill Coleman <colt...@gmail.com<mailto:colt...@gmail.com>> wrote: Also, sometimes there is a set screw on top of the set screw for those who like a belt and suspenders approach.

Two days, and two of us working on it it came off. Put in a drip less then. Second time, I cut the coupler piece on the shaft with a Dremel tool and replaced it. This was as part of an engine replacement. This year, 17 years later, the dripless needs to be serviced so have a mechanic doing it, shafts released as of today, the first time I have been allowed to visit the boat this spring. Where abouts are you in Ontario?

I used everything I had including a 5 ton puller on shaft coupler using an impact gun on the puller bolt screw at one point and it never budged AT ALL. I Heated coupler with electric heat gun still never moved ..cant use gas torches because the transmission seal is right there and it will get ruined. Everything requires removing coupler first to proceed foward with dripless. Boat is freshwater all it’s life, and I know they are dissimilar metals (SS Shaft, steel coupler, bronze key (?). Am I missing something? Is there a bolt or otherwise somewhere that I am missing?
