That's a good report!!! So glad you can make full use of your machine now. Hopefully you will have a long stretch without troubles. It was kind of a rough start for you after just buying your first machine but I applaud you for not giving upClap...what you have undertaken is not an easy job...it's kind of like you have graduated now LOL, hope you get all your work done before winter.

If it is a standard Stanadyne injection pump common to many old Allis's there is a return fitting in the top cover of the pump where the shut off mechanism sits. In that fitting is a check ball, should it have debris in it or getting to it, it will do just as noted and eventually the coupler in the pump will fail where it will not start at all.

I have been thru that on a few that used these style pumps. Only real repair is take it off and have it rebuilt, cleaning just the nozzles would not stop a problem as noted.

//New Problem// the radiator fan, alternator, and pulley aren't turning. Sometimes it starts slowly or works a little. But now it isn't working at all or intermittently. Anyone have an idea of what this could be?

Thanks

looks like the belt ain't tight.  also might not be the right belt, or crank pulley has a lot of wear on it, making the belt slip...

It was the crankshaft pulley again. The teeth on the pulley are completely worn down. I will order another one tomorrow morning and Im thinking about putting JB Weld or Loctite Metal on it next time to prevent it from vibrating or moving around. Does anyone have any other ideas or think that this isnt the way to go?

Thanks

Brian

There is a bolt that holds the pulley on. But the pulley internal bore metal seems to not be as strong as the gear metal and keeps wearing down over time to the point of failure. This will be the second pulley in the last 2 years. So when I buy the 3rd, I'd like to make it hold, since it will have some grip from the get go. 

Any suggestions on any metal epoxies or tricks that would do the trick?

Very respectfully,
Brian

I would say that jbweld would probably be as good as any other, in this application.  I would use the regular set up time stuff, not the quick set.  You say a bolt holds it on, what's it thread into the end of the crank?

The bolt with a washer threads into the end of the crankshaft to hold the pulley in place. The reason why I asked what epoxy to use is because in doing my own research I came across this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM4IGweHT2k
Which says the Loctite Steel rated better, but I know that there is no shortage of wisdom represented on this site and if you think JB Weld will work then I will give that a try. aIll be sure to let it fully cure after the new pulley arrives Wednesday, before test it. :)

I wouldn't place too much faith in the test, in the video.  Too many human errors possible, due to weights swinging, rope placement, amount of product used, etc.  If you could find an independent testing co's scientifically done test, OK, then.

Ok, well if JB weld will do the trick I will be placing it on the new pulley when it arrives tomorrow. Then letting it fully cure and hopefully by late Thursday we will running her again once more. :)
