clutch without threaded crank shaft

[scphantm]

i have a honda 5 horse engine without a threaded crank shaft. whats the best way to press the clutch on? also, am i going to have a problem with the clutch backing off since its not going to have a bolt holding it on?

Have you got a keyway? If so get a clutch with set screws, or machine a thread in the crank

If so get a clutch with set screws

Known as bi-directional or in-board/outboard operational. Does not require bolt and is more versatile (alignment).

I always use set screws and a bolt.
