Hi, the Following is a "General" "Chainsaw/Trimmer Clutch Removal" File. **To Hold the Crankshaft for Removal of the Clutch; Purchase a Bolt that is 3" to 4" Long and has the Same Diameter and Threads as the Spark Plug. Carefully Insert the Bolt Into the Engine Until it Contacts the Piston. If the Bolt is too Short, then Slowly Turn the Engine in the Same Direction you are Going to be Turning the Clutch Until the Piston Contacts the Bolt. Now to Remove the Clutch. If you do Not have the Clutch Tool for an Impact Wrench and are Doing this By Hand (no air compressor and/or not the correct socket), then Use a 2" Wide, Flat Chisel and a Shop Hammer or a 22oz Hammer and Hit the Outer Part of the Thick Ear in the Same Direction that the Engine Turns During Operation.

Are you saying that the engine output shaft is Threaded and the Clutch Rotor Assembly screws onto the output shaft. Are you suggesting to stop the ouput shaft from turning by threading a bolt in a Sparkplug base to hold the piston from riseing and the output shaft from Turning? If so it sounds to me to be and excellent way to ether poke a hole in the top of the piston or stripping the Sparkplug hole threads.
