Lucky you, those pulleys are not cheap. I wanted to make a versatile remover, so I bought a lot of nuts and bolts and a welding machine ..etc. Then I found a bearing remover for 10 dollars, so I bought that.
As stated, that's the start capacitor. All motors draw lots of power when they move very slow. So starting requires a big surge n especially if they have a loaf to get going. The capacitor provides a little jolt to get going and smooths out the surges as it first builds speed. Thanks for the vids. I'm considering a similar project.

Right on!

Blow it out and put it back together Will, you have it apart far enough lol. That thing is the start capacitor for the motor.
Yeah...(sigh) That's probably what I should do....But I'm such a glutton for punishment ..

Will, I'm not sure what you're doing here (not mechanically inclined), but 👍🏻 are cheap so you have mine. Plus, that opening is really slick.
Thank you Aaron. I like it too.

Good luck to you as you may notice in a future video my motor rebuild didn't turn out as promising. But I learned a lot. Thanks for watching. -Will
Somebody needs some ratcheting gear wrenches.. Taking forever w fast forwarding.
Ya sorry this video was way longer than it needed to be. Thanks for watching.
