What type of pulley or brand is the one you took off?

use a loosening agent like PB Blaster.

Hey Chris, currently we do not have a video showing that process, but we'll keep that topic in mind for future videos.

🤔🤔🤔 Im Thinking ??

GRAINGER or small engine shops

Jason Smith Thank you for your question! Yes the belt can be installed without completely removing the pump. In this video the last 2 very long screws that I removed are referred to as "tension" screws. when you back those out while the pump is still connected it will relieve the tension on the belt allowing you to remove and reinstall the belt without having to take the whole pump off. Also sometimes if you look at the frame of your pump(the 'L' shaped metal brakets) one of the bolt holes may be a long hole which once you loosen these bolts will also allow the pump some play. As far as keeping the pulleys aligned that's a bigger question. The Motor pulley shouldn't be moved for the most part, do not loosen any engine bolts or that pulley. Instead we're going to focus on the pump side pulley. As your tightening your pump down and re-applying tension you probably have noticed the entire pump wants to shift toward the pulley(pulley pulls back toward the engine). The answer to this is a balancing act of sorts of loosening the L shaped brackets and tension screws and slowly tightening and readjusting them as you apply tension to the belt. You should be able to counteract the pump and pulley wanting to move this way. Good Luck!

Jason Smith would like to know that too

mark c i have done it a few times since. no need to remove pump. you can get the belts on with a little "work"

i was wondering if a belt "tensioner" is even needed. i have a 690 and tsf2120 pump. it has dual V belts

Mine has 3 v belts and there are "tensioners" under the pump

I found one from Power wash store, part # KDR-326 for a 13hp GX390 and a General Pump 5535 talk to alex

some pumps have tension adjustment bolts underneath them, otherwise you have to use the position of the pump itself to adjust tension.

Bring the old belts to a store that sells belts. Usually Napa auto is good with matching up belts. If you don't have a store locally, you can measure the belts, width and length, and order them online. They are just generic belts.
