I bought a ZTR that a guy was going to junk because he couldn't get it to work. New carb kit and it's running fine. I noticed that the deck seemed to to put an unusually big load on the engine. The motor is relatively new and the deck spindles were free.
There were new pulleys everywhere and I noticed that the engine pulley was 4" and the deck pulley was 3 1/4". I called the company and they are supposed to be 4", thus the overload.
So, can any if you smarties tell me how much faster the deck was running? If I put a 3 1/4" pulley on the engine would it have the same result? If the pulleys are the same size does it matter how big they are?
