Hi, Most PT blade disc bosses have a hole in them, I guess its for that steel bar. Even holding the blade boss still puts strain on that flywheel to crankshaft joint. Its only alloy sort of Dshaped with a flattened area to locate the flywheel. No key way. As I said I damaged one once putting it on. Not sure if the nut was on too loose or what but it put the timing out. Rattle gun is sounding better and better.
