Heat is one of the best spanners in the toolkit of anyone messing about with old stuff. Got the method of removing a Briggs & Stratton flywheel from multiple American YouTube videos. They put a wedge opposite the cylinder and a pry bar next to the barrel. Put the point of small air chisel on the end of the crank, pull the trigger and give the pry bar a yank at the same time and off they pop. BUT I have been lucky enough in never having to deal with a stuck one. Do have a slide hammer puller that gets most things off. If in the initial effort it does not move, or even seized nut, I very quickly resort to the blow torch.
