Here is an update. Just got back from the local JD dealer for parts and discussion. Wouldn't you know it, someone else had bought all of their belts of the size I needed.
Seems like they (the customer that ran them out of belts) had done the same as me and replaced the pump with a reman from auto parts store and are breaking/burning up belts. The parts guys said they think there is an orifice or some part inside the pump that must restrict or bypass flow that is different from an automotive application. They say it is not a part that you can purchase anywhere?? A JD pump is $315 while the auto parts one is about $45.
So, I went to TSC and bought a couple of kevlar belts to try to finish my baling job. I am trying a 5/8 x 43 inch and another that is the original 1/2 by 42 size. This is all that store has in stock so my local options for belts is running low.
Does anyone have more information on the JD pump versus automotive versions that can help??
