Howdy,
Back to workin on the 720 again finally. I had an issue with the flywheel walking on it. You all helped me to realize I had the taper lock flywheel. I found instructions for putting one of those monsters back on and finally had a chance to do it today. I got it on tight with good endplay. When I started up the tractor the flywheel scraped against a shield that sits behind it. Now, this wouldn't be an issue if it were just a scraping. I have bent things sometimes that might cause it. The problem is that you can turn the flywheel over and not hear anything for a time and then feel and hear it scrape. It almost seems like the flywheel is wobbling. It feels that way too somewhat when the tractor is running. It doesn't shake horribly but it is noticeable and feels different than the usual vibration from it being a two banger. Anyone have thoughts about the flywheel? Appreciate the help. God bless.

That is well within a
