Belt!

[Mark Benjamin]

OK I give up! How in the heck do you get the belt off/on a Jubilee without removing the entire front end? There seems to be zero clearance between the front bolts on the crank pulley and the steel cowling...

as long as there is no stinger pump drive, I've never had more than a few moments issue removing a belt from the crank pulley. yer not holdin' yer mouth correctly..

It can be done but you have to as sound said hold your mouth just right say the correct words and then find some one to help by maybe spinning the engine over as you pull on it but if you try the spinning the engine over be super careful. Getting the engine to spin over just a little can pull the belt in and past the pulley but as I said if you try it be careful

Thanks guys! I'll try a little more brute force, leverage, turning the engine AND holding my mouth just right!

I wish someone would post a picture of how to hold your mouth just right...I dont seem to get it right most of the time

Well first off you need to be old enough not to have teeth. That way you can take them out and hold your mouth in ways people with teeth can not do. Then you need to also be able to stand on your head and also be able to walk 10 feet on just a 2X4 the 2 inch side that is and it also helps to be able to speak 2o r 3 different languages. That way you can cuss at it and no one knows you are

Please remove the coil wire and put it in your pocket before spinning the engine to install the belt. You can loose hide and or fingers doing it that way. Even turning the fan can get you s blood blister. SAFETY FIRST

Off topic but....I have one tooth missing, I think I can walk the 2x4 and I know a couple swear words in Spanish.... Think that'll be enough??

Don't know you might better practice standing on your head and at the same time learning another few words in say German or Russian. LOL
