Hello all,
I am new to the forum and I am currently 90% complete in restoring a 1948 john deere B. Its been a major project and we just got it to fire up! So long story short, the tractor is vibrating pretty bad when it
runs so i assume that the flywheel is on in-correctly. I know that the clutch is weighted as well but i do remember making sure that the v notches on the clutch driver were lined up when we rebuilt the clutch. We did not realize that the flywheel has one deep spline to accommodate a locating screw on the crank for proper balance. I will get home tonight and
check that out which I am hoping to find that we just need to move it one spline and problem solved.
However, here is the problem im trying to get ahead of in case i run into it. I have seen on an old post in this forum that not all flywheels for the B had a deep spline. So just in case my flywheel does not
have this deep spline, how will i know where to set it? Thanks in advance!
