new (old compressor)

[Dean Wilson]

Couldn't go to bed tonight without giving it one more try. Cleaned the key, end of crankshaft and hole in pulley and tried putting together again. had it on for about 10 mins or so and hasn't budged an inch. Hopefully all good to go now then

I still think it woulda been better to remove the old pieces of the bearing and fitted a new one rather than putting the old balls back in, but good luck with it.

Yeah, I think you are right maybe I should have, my impatience is usually my downfall , to be honest I could have probably have got them at the same place I got my oil seal from as they sold bearings as well as oil seals.

When I next get a chance to take it apart I will probably replace them. Thanks for your help
