Got off work, had a few hours to kick around.
use a pick and screwdriver and DID discover the 1/2" coars threads in the pulley hole burried by what must have been epoxy? or some kind of hard glue?
took me 45 minutes to get all the stuff out and chase the hole clean. put a bolt in there, set up my rig with bottle jack and bearing splitter and backing plate.. tensioned it up and nada.. got it as hard as I could get it without actually rocking the tractor or using a bar on the pump handle.
decided to leave it under pressure and go soak the bolt on the fan pully adjuster.. heard a clang after a few minutes, thought it had popped off or the pulley had come off :( well it broke.
now I need options on what is the best way to procede.
apparrently it's rusted on good, or perhaps the previous owner GLUED it on and that is what i found in that hole.. epoxy or something.
what next?
try to split the hub?
sawsall?
torch? not exactly sure how to do that without damaging the crank snout ...
i'm open to ideas.. i'm sure someone else has broke one before.
also.. next stupid question.
anyone got a pulley laying around.. I think i may need one.. :)
