    Awesome. If I ever want to completely screw up a torque converter install on one of my engines, I will be sure and watch this video.

    Looks like the belt was on backwards at the end. It is asymmetrical. One side beveled and the other at 90 degrees. Flat side goes towards the motor.

    That bronze ring you put over the front pulley is actually so the belt doesn't wear on the spinning pulley, The brass just sits there and doesn't spin while the pulley shaft is spinning, It keeps your belt from wearing in 1 spot while you're idling.

    I guess none you DIY remember flipping rings , forgetting to put oil plug until you see oil running Down the driveway or putting a pistons backwards. I've done it all and I can't say it was 2AM or after a few "BEERS". So to all Dad trying to show their sons not to be afraid of getting dirty or be the 25yo millennial standing by his car wringing his hands hoping a savior will stop. Good job ! Bro. Been there done that.

    Sorry to say buddy but those guys are totally right about the spacer and the belt... Its all good tho, trial and error is how you learn... The pulleys absolutely MUST be in alignment and the belt MUST be put on in the right direction.

    Use blue thread lock on the bolts. The vibration will work them out.

    I just bought the exact same rig, as a basket case. The 4 ribbed spacer is missing except for 1/2"at the outside end. The bronze bushing is also missing and the springs surrounding the 2 "shoes". Do these items sell in parts kits?

  • @adamgoldberg6206

    Do you have to install it in that orientation? Or can you have the torque converter pointing down or the opposite way?

    • @alericjohansen6775
      @alericjohansen6775 3 роки тому

      Technically no, thats why there is 6 holes on each "corner", though the top 3 and the bottom 3 are for diffrent engine sized mounting holes
      And technically you CAN have it to the left over the right hand side (as he had it), but you likely will run into chain clearance issues due to the fins on the mounting plate. Hard to explain, but...yeah. If you put the chain on going horizontal to the left more (or the chain going straight up), then it wouldnt have issues, but....what are you doing that the chain will be like that?

    Is there any way to mount the torque converter horizontal I cannot lift the engine one inch. Maybe a little grinding and drill new holes?

    • @LowQualityFilms-in1og
      @LowQualityFilms-in1og  6 років тому +1

      There are multiple bolt patterns you can use. Can you face the sprocket pulley to the front of the engine? If not grinding might be useful. Raising the engine monting plate up is also an option.

      Desirey & Taylor Channel do you boo, if it doesn’t fit up don’t come to me boss.. make sure when you order it it’s meant for the shaft size of the 79cc engine. I’ve never really seen tourqe converters on 79cc ones mainly on the fact that there made for 212’s... also make sure you have the bolt mounting patterns on your engine! As well it wouldn’t hurt to buy a extra belt.
