What do you mean by big weights at the center? By the way thanks to everyone for the help. Just starting what looks to be a long, but hopefully fun journey.

The parts book shows a pic of the Large Weights sprocket.
Ya will see that at the sides are cast steel plates that the later issues didn't have. .......lm

Thanks. No large weights so I assume left-hand threads. I will keep applying penetrant and hope for the best. Ever had one you couldn't break free LM?

Ya may have missed where I stated some of the early ones Were Not Left Hand.
I use Vise Grip pliers on the left side of the sprocket shaft and a flat head chisel and hammer.
Knock the Heck out of it. ...........lm

If engine was submerged in water then it may have rusted on, you will almost need some heat (depends on how much it has rusted) as well as penetrating fluid.

Will heat cause any damage to these components?
