I have pulled the prop hub by using a puller and applying some decent
pressure then smacking the end of the puller shaft with a hammer. It has
never caused any damage and the prop hub pops pops right off. I did this a
number of times when setting up the engine I am currently using. I also used

he’d torn it down. He couldn’t figure out how to put it back together. It was a

I'm going to have to replace the two seals on my Great Plains Force One
