RVR HSG Head Rebuild - Now vibrating violently/no power

[penngwyne]

There is two types of tension pulleys. One is smaller and fits rvr and late evos, the bigger one is what I got and made a nice cut on plastic cover and then I heated it up and pushed it out to accommodate bigger pulley.

ps: when I say bigger I mean same diameter but wider.

Good I am pleased to hear that. Hopefully the new pulley I'm getting is the one for the RVR
It is very noticeable that the outsides of the pulleys don't line up. it is a horrible expensive sounding noise though.
Will do the bendy thing if I have to.

What about the angle grinder thing and shorten the pulley?

So you just have to backyard job everything, don't you?

Which is of course an angle grinder?? or am I doing you a dis-service?

I'm lucky. I have a shed to work in but I have to be sure not to put on too much weight or it would be a bit of a squeeze. (no lathe but I do have a little angle grinder)
if I want to work on the 5 series (which I don't want at the moment) I have to take one of the work benches outside.

I have lathe and mill in my backyard.
Actually have a factory unit too, but have it leased out to a lebanese chop shop.

Very handy things to have in your backyard too!
