I will fire up the saw in the morning, if I can get away with the flywheel I'll probably sell it as spares or repairs to fund a new saw.

 

Thanks for the info.

Fins missing on flywheels can knock them out of balance and cause main bearing failure but saying that - they are opposite each other so it will be minimal.

 

An old trick for a fin missing is to knock the one off the opposinng side.

Heaps of energy in a flywheel

Four people were killed at brooklands in 1930's when a badly lightened flywheel exploded

If its damaged bin it .....not worth the risk

Uncle smashed two fingers to bits with exploding grinder
