1989 Johnson 200 Hp flywheel nut size???

[SparkieBoat]

I tried a 1 5/16 socket which seemed to be too small, it was the largest that I have. I am going to buy a new 1 3/8 socket, I guess that is the right size. Just wanted to make sure before spending the cash and trip to town that I am getting the right socket. Thanks Sparkie

1 7/16ths is what you will be wanting.

36 mm will also work make sure its thin walled or you will have to do some grinding

1 7/16 old Craftsman works and is thin enough, otherwise go buy a cheapie socket as you will have to grind on it to get it down in there.

Nope, one who measured SnapOn, Mac, and Matco sockets that fit perfectly.
