I have a 1958 Johnson RD-21 , and a 1958 Evinrude 35 Lark, Same engine except for their cowls near as I can tell. Anyway the flywheel armature plate from the Johnson fits on the Evinrude (trying to get one running). There are four screws (two short through the armature plate and two long, one thru each coil heel that the Clymer B734 manual refer to as Take down screws - armature plate. If I take them down they lock the armature down keeping it from moving (which probably explains why the engine wouldn't start). What are these screws used for and should they be removed when not in use?
