As my previous post stated, I got my new C pulley in today... immediately had to go to work.. so.. just got home at 11:15 pm and decided to run out and play a few moments..
I did a real quick go / no go test on the id of the pulley and OD of the crank snout, and od of the seal surface to the seal, with a bit of grease.
everything looks good. pulley will be a GOOD interference fit.
measuring the old one,it is noticeably ( on the dial mic 'wide' in tolerance.
had 2 or 3 mic's and calipers and external and internal feelers to double check myself.
I did a dry fit of the crank and pulley, and was able to seat the pullet tot he edge of the keyway because of the slight chamfer on the id, and I could tell it was going to be a nice smooth, GOOD interference fit.
Now.. is best bet to drive it on with a piece of pipe or to take it down with the bolt and a plate across the front? or a lil of both.
I've heard to warm the pulley up a bit.. by boiling it, etc.. mild heat at the hub.. etc.. just not enough to melt the seal.. etc..
i know to grease the seal.. etc.. and i know to leave the tc loose till it is piloted on the pulley.
Also, I've been soaking the fan belt adjuster ont he top water inlet since it came off. I walk by and squirt it with pb every time I walk thru the shop, and tap the end of the stud with a tack hammer.
put it in the vice this evening.. put a wrench on the previously non moving head, and with less than medium pressure, it unscrewed just fine. i cleaned up the threads with a brass wire wheel and then reassembled it, adding lube to the fan hub thru the screw. glad that adjuster is working. it was seriously FROZE when i took it off.. had to unbolt the dern thing to get the belts off.
can't wait till tomorrow afterwork to get some real wrench time on her

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
