When
the
engine ahd
the
engine
mount
are
removed
as
an assembly,
you
can
turn
your
thoughts
back
to
the reverse disc alignment
problem. Next, remove
the
engine
pulley
by
putting
a
pry
bar
or
a large screwdriver
through
the
opening
in the
motor
mount,
as
shown in
Photo
7/36, and tap the
bar
toward
the
front
of
the
engine
to
loosen the pulley. When it
is
loose,
carefully
take
the
pulley
off
the engine
power
takeoff
shaft.
REMOVING ENGINE PULLEY SHIMS

(Photo 7/37) Shims between

and

(Photo 7/38) Replacing the enginepulley.
(Photo 7/39) Keep pressure
on
bolt
and
tap bar.
Replace
the
shim behind
the
pulley
(with a
thinner
one,
or
none at all, if need be) and then
put
the
pulley
in place and tap
the
key back in
the
pulley
(Photo
7/38). Clean
off
the
motor
mount
bars and grease them lightly.
Lift
the en-
gine
and place it back
into
position.
Then, insert the bars in
the
top
hole
of
the
mo-
tor
mount. As soon as a
motor
mount
bar gets
through
the
lower
hole,
stop
tapping
it
down.
Then, back
off
the
jam
nut
and install the
lock-
ing
bolt
for
the
bar.
Turn
it until it is
finger
tight
and you feel it strike the bar. Take a
wrench
and
apply
a very
slight
pressure on the
bolt
while
you
continue
to
tap the
bar
down-see
Photo
7/39. When
the
groove in the
bar
reaches the
bolt, the pressure on the
bolt
will
be relieved.
Thread the
bolt
all the way in. Then, back the
bolt
off
one-half
turn
and
lock
the jam
nut
with
asecond
wrench
while
you
hold
the
bolt
in
posi-
tion. Install
both
engine
mount
bars.
Next, replace
the
belts and the reverse disc.
As you remove
the
engine
pulley
(part
#1
007-
1), take careful note
as
to
how
many shims (thin
'washers)
are between the pulley and the en-
gine. Write
down
the
number
of
shims between
the
end
of
the
engine crankshaft and
the
pul-
ley-see
Photo 7/37. The written note will help
you
return
to
the
original
shim distance, if
desired.
There
may be one,
two
or
three shims
used.
If
you
add a
shim
behind
the
pulley, it
will
move
the
pulley
toward
the
operator
by
the
thickness
of
the
shim.
If
you
take
out
a shim,
it
will
move
the
pulley
toward
the engine.
