I have a dumb question from a "part-time farmer" - I have a IH624 that I bought sometime ago that had seen some "rough" hours (although it only has 3500hrs) - the fellow before had added a heavy duty loader that he used to move round bales (although I think he moved two at a time!). It had some front end work done before I got it - all I've done is replace all the fluids and filters - but other than that it has run really well (touch wood). I noticed the other day that the main pulley coming from the engine is slightly "warped" - there is no leakage nor is the fan belt worn funny because of it - but you can notice it. Can I "straighten" this out without taking the engine apart - even though it seems to be running fine at the moment I am afraid that the warp may not be helping things and that later on I'll pay! Or should I just ignore and drive on?
