Hello,
I'm new to the site and need some assistance with a problem with my John Deere 210 (early serial) that I have been restoring from the ground up and when I start the engine, the transmission idler pulley won't turn when bolt is tight and the belt (new) starts to smoke. If not tightened, it rattles, but doesn't smoke. I'm guessing a tension issue or adjustment? If you remove the pulley, it spins fine. Any help would be appreciated!
