Changing Pulleys
If you dont want to read the whole story, I just want some guidance on how to change the pulleys on a beetle engine.
I bought a sand rail thats in pretty rough condition and recently for some reason the alternator isnt charging the battery. In addition to replacing the battery cables i want to replace the old pulley belt that turns the alternator. I got a new belt, the only problem is that i cant figure out how to take the old one off and put on the new one. Theres a bolt holding on the pulley to the alternator and when i try taking it off it just spins the pulleys. I was thinking of sticking a screwdriver in the alternator and holding it stilll while i took off the bolt, but I figured I would ask someone whose done it before before I break something.
