Field Coil Screws

[Conn47D24]

Reading up on past threads here I saw that several have had a hard time with starter and generator rebuilds due to these magnet / field coil screws.

Mine were no different, impact hammer and air tool started stripping the slot.

I found a great tip on the AACA Forum.

 

Using my C-293 Miller tool and a slotted 1/2 drive socket I had an easy time of it .

Squeeze the socket into the frozen screw slot, and turn the shaft with a wrench.

Very happy today that I invested in this tool !   :-)

Now on the the rebuild.

 

Shout out to Rich Hartung ( Miller Man )

That screw loosened from sheer terror!

I saw "field coil screws" on the title and I cringed with memories.
