 Those were "pull dowels " which have a thread in them for extraction from a blind hole .They were only ones I could find at the time .

A lot of this home grown stuff is experimentation .Usually it works after a few minor adjustments .

Problem with a screw on clutch is they get tight as a mouses ear .What ever you use often times has to be able to with stand some impact because it often takes a mighty wack with a hammer to get it broke loose .

You can take a chance and thump them on the clutch spinder with a brass rod and a ball peen but you take the change of doing harm to the crank shaft stub end . Not good .

I tried to make your attachment bigger and re embed it but it didnt work. So how does that one work, I cant tell?

nor sure how to post a picture that you can see i'll work on it.......anyway its a piece oy steel 1-1/2" Wide X 12"long for this one two holes are drilled and taped 1/4-20 thread (used 1/4-20 bolts) the same distance apart as the clutch center line measures insert two screws with locktight cut the threads flush with the steel and on the second side cut the heads off the distance that the clutch is deep i put a piece of starter rope in the cylinder to loosen and tigthen..worked good on my saw.... dont know if it will fit all saws i made this for my jonsered easy enough to make though.....Chris.....

Solo 665-681 Clutch tool.  Everybody has a bunch of old spark plug sockets in their toolbox.  I used a Dremel and a 1" cutoff wheel to cut out every other face about 3/8" - 7/16" deep.  10-15 min.  Done.  I think it will work on Dol/Mak 6400-7900 too.  Will have to check.

Just throwing this out there. Dolmar 166 flywheel removal tool.

I found out that the POLY flywheel removal tool for the stihl 066 660 will work. It is the same threads as the dolmar 166 flywheel since I owned both saws.
