Crank pulley
This plate washer is in the way to get my crank pulley installed.
Is there any reason why I can't remove the bolt and plate washer and put the pulley on first and then re-install the bolt and a thinner washer? Should I just use the same washer? HT383 crate motor Is there a preferred method to holding the balancer in place to get the bolt re-torqued? thanks for any help |

Re: Crank pulley
Exactly what you need to do. Remove, install pulley and keep that thick washer. You can use a few longer bolts in the crank and a pry bar to keep the engine from spinning over to get your torque.

Re: Crank pulley
It looks like the engine is not installed. You can use bolts in the back end of the crank to hold it still.

Re: Crank pulley
thank you both for the help.
The motor is still in on the shipping crate, and I'm gonna keep putting accessories on it before the install. I did just learn how to link my build/help thread, I'm certain there will be more questions asked there, thanks again |
