Bucking bar sticks out about 7/16"

I thought the bucking bar was only supposed to stick out about 1/4"?

Does the actuator arm touch? Is the cover hard to get on?

I have had a couple engines come like this and as Chainlube said/asked about, the sprocket side cover was hard to remove and install due to the pressure. In both cases my clutch flower nut was barely screwed on.

Yeah, the pin stuck out too far so I ground it down about 1/8" or so.
I couldn't get the cover back on before I ground the pin down.

Well, now you need a new bucking bar. Notice one end of it is concave, the other is flat.
The concave end sits against the ball bearing inside the shaft. Put grease on the ball and bar.
The flower nut is out of adjustment.

No...it wasn't the flower nut. The bucking bar stuck out too far. I couldn't get the cover back on...

Yeah it was difficult to get back on. Actually I couldn't get it back on...
