I’ve recently bought a used craftsman self propelled lawn mower model # 917.37060-1. It is powered by a Honda GCV160 engine. I am trying to get the drive belt pulley off of the gearbox to change the belt. Does anyone know if the nut on it has right or left hand threads? It is quite rusted and It’s going to need a “thousand little taps” to get it loose. I need to know which way to turn it.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Jimbir
should be in the opposite direction of pulley rotation/spin.
