I DON'T REMEMBER YOUR BRAND OF STOKER, BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS A KEYSTOKER....(damned cap-lock key.....grrrrrrrrr!!) If so, there is a very small hex screw in the side of the nylon drive wheel. It is tiny........

You might need your glasses on to find it....or at least, so good light!

Also on the new one I just got also? It's a 1293. Btw I ordered part yest and its here today!! It also seems my plate is on top of a metal block which is bigger. Took four screws out and under that was another four screws. Now I'm stuck at the plastic circles lol

I understand your dilemma. This will easily resolve itself, and you will have climbed a few more steps on the ladder of "Coal as my friend" trip. See that hex screw yet? Need new glasses? Do you have a current drivers license? If so, please advise me of your driving patterns so I can go the other direction!

The new one I got def has no hex screw. It looks like a pin goes through and holds it in. Do I push it out to remove plastic cap? Old one has some sort of screw in it and of course not finding what I needed to remove it

If it's a keystoker, It should be held in place by a taper pin. You should be able to tap the old one out and tap the new one in.
