Viking outboard 3.5 flywheel question pic

[Britcheflee]

Hope I am posting in correct place! I have an old viking outboard 3.5 - model number 34801 - i think the coil may need replacing so trying to get the flywheel off - got the nut off but not sure how to proceed next - thought I would ask before I broke something.

Any info about this model would be useful. Also a source for parts such as coil/points etc - if available through here would love a link to correct parts.

Many thanks - here is picture of motor and head.

Looks like a standard harmonic balancer puller would work;

I wouldn't be looking for a new coil just yet. Your motors points may need to be cleaned and adjusted, or replaced. Would be the most common issue.
