Re: [T3] Generator gave up ghost

[Grant Voigt <gravoi@yahoo.com>]

Getting the pulley past the key (forget the correct
name for it) was the pain. This key is the shim
located on the shaft of the generator. This is also
the inside pulley that i was having problems with, the
one closest to the generator. Since I broke the old
one, I ordered a new one from Rocky Mountain. This one
I think is bigger because it would not fit through the
hole in which the generator shaft slides into where
the V-belt is located, I had to put the pulley on
while the generator was in the tin area (that was not
fun) I now don't have enough threads on the shaft to
tight the nut down to hold the pulleys together. I do
have the inside pulley as far in as it can go. any
ideas? anyone?

thanks
