The smaller pulley had the key and the keyway. What ever bolt and keeper
was in it was gone. I actually did think of that because you are right about
that as the larger pulley is machined for left hand threads. So when i
couldn't start anything I had in the threaded end of the motors crankshaft
pulley I gave up and put the tack weld there. It may be blasphemy to a
machinist or somebody like that but it worked and did not seem to unbalance
the motor or anything. They are going to send me a motor, pulley, key, and
a belt and the keeper for the key, don't know exactly how it looks. I imagine they will want me to return at least their motor and if
that is the case, I can easily remove the tack from the keyway. If they
had mentioned that you needed to check on this situation I would have
gave it a look. When I mentioned that to the lady. She said it was not
expected but it was happening lately and that i should not have a
problem if I would just use the red lock tite. Thanks for your information
and maybe this ounce of prevention will help anybody else with one of
the to prevent the pound of care
