Problem:The enlosed picture shows
that the rotor threads on the alternator shaft have been damaged (Stipped).
This can be caused when replacing the pulley and starting the nut on the
thread with an air impact, or using a hammer when removing the pulley.
Solution:
Start the pulley nut by hand initially to avoid possible cross threading
of the shaft. Then tighten to spec with air impact.
Do not use a hammer directly on the shaft when removing the pulley. |
