Yeah 🙂, I have the following so far
1. Empty the fuel tank or if you have a fuel control lever, turn it to off
2. Run the engine until stop, so it dries the fuel in the carb
Good morning everyone. I was able to get the bolt from my friend who had an old lawn mower that was not being used. When I compared that with the bolt I had, I see the threads on that was fine thread. That worked fine. Thanks Riverts for the suggestion on using roctite, I initially fixed without...
I tried with grade 5 bolt, still having trouble tightening it past 2 threads. It looks like the bolt is a size bigger but I am sure the size is as per recommendation. Please see the screen print.
Yes the length seems to be correct. I ordered OEM on searsdirect, same part number as you have mentioned but they have not shipped it yet(screen print).
Do you have a recommendation of a local store where I can get the exact bolt?
Thanks

Thanks, I bought a another standard bolt(vs matrix), that seems to go few threads but stops after using 3 threads leaving half an inch of bolt outside. Further tightening turns the pully. Let me try restoring the thread.
Hello all,while mowing the other day the transmission pully fell off.
I picked up a 7/16-20x4 in bolt to put it back on but that does not seem to be the size.
Would you know the size of the bolt. I am now wondering if the th part where the thread goes in is cut. Please see the images.
Thanks,
Ram
