Cluthch on a 1952 B John Deere

IA JOHN · Aug 10, 2017

I drove my "B" John Deere from my home to the threshing show grounds; 8 miles. My question is: should the belt pulley on a clutch get warm. Once I got to the show grounds a fellow came up and felt the belt pulley and he indicated it was warm, but not too bad. The only load was driving 8 miles in 6th gear with about 80% throttle.

Thanks

I've never felt one cold after running nearly an hour???? In August?

Remember it is on the end of the crankshaft.... Sooo, how warm was warm?

You could easily keep your hand on the pulley.

No problem then!

I would say that is normal.
