      Hope someone can help,,just got this unit out from the shed a few months ago..been working on it and started to put it together,,,last bolt to tighten down was the fly wheel center but and it snapped off😥

      The stend or threads are just about even with the flywheel…

      Looked at the threaded stud and it was hollowed out about 1 inch from the start of the threads

      Metal looks a little soft but a magnet barely attacks to it..

      Any idea what I can do to snitch a nut down and hold the fwheel in place

          If I understand correctly, the part that is stuck in the crankshaft is hollow. If it snapped off before it bottomed, out there is a good chance you can remove it with an easy out. Then get a replacement for the one you broke.   

          A "Boathouse Repair" is one that done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
