Would you be interested in selling that 18 hp with the messed up shaft?

<font color=e87400>No, I'll put it aside & fix it later when I have time. I think one of my major problems with it has been that I have been under a crunch to get / keep it running, thus I have been fixing it on the fly.

What I did not expect thought is today. Oddly I found a unique size pulley in a store where I wasn't looking for one. The store us a pretty pricey hardware store but they had this pulley for $8 so I figured what the hell I'll try it. It's a 25mm pulley rather than a 1". I bought some 1/4 key stock & grinded it to a custome fit, a little tight. Then I got our the BFH & beat that pulley with Key onto the ,orginally, 1" shaft. It's now realllll tight. So we'll see. Unfortunatley I now think that the pulley on my pump is too small thus, I will have to wait until monday to try this thing out. Maybe. I'm going to make another new post to get some feed back on that.</font>
