By all I meant 6. 3 flat point and 3 cone point. I probably should have specified.

Sorry I misread what you were asking.

The slide hammer worked to get the clutch off.

Is it normal to be able to turn over the engine by grabbing the outer race of the clutch bearing? Looks like I'll need a replacement.

Next step tear the clutch apart and see what else needs to be replaced, but first off to a movie with the wife (grandma is watching the kids).

No, it's not. Time to replace.

Congrats on a date night, we get them rarely, grandparents help out a lot in that department.

It looks like based on my assembly and the manual that the 149 should have two friction disks, but all the kits I see appear to only include one. Should it be two disks? Are there sources for two disk kits or the disk alone?

Are there any problems running the engine without the pro clutch installed? It doesn't seem like it would cause any problems.

Also, at what point should the friction disks be replaced? The clutch plates have worn into the surface of them about .020".

Is there anything special about the dowel pin (IH-19837-R1) that pins the driveshaft to the flange on the engine? Mine is broken and from what I can tell it appears to be a standard 1/4x1.5" dowel pin. Also, is there anything else I should check before replacing the pin.

Jeff in PA makes a gnurled one as if there's any wiggle room and the press is gone the pin will shoot out. That's the one I would get if you're not replacing the drive shaft. Also check the coupler for it being knotched out where the pin rides as most are

I should quit looking at this thing. Every time I look at it I find another problem.

I have never seen one of those break like that. No big deal to weld it. :beerchug:
