well, my problem seems to be getting the driven pulley off. the bolt that hold it on (big one in the center) seems to be stuck... its not a reverse thread is it?
also, i finally got a reply back from comet about the procedure:
SETTING SPRING PRELOAD:
Instructions on disassembly & reassembly of a symmetrical & asymmetrical torque converter system. (20 , 30 &40 Series)
Remove the driven unit from the machine and lay it flat on a work area.
DISASSEMBLE:
1) With the spring facing up, remove the retaining ring from the end of the post (Caution: this spring should be under pressure)
2) Lift up the fixed cam (the one with the three holes and spring), 40 series only one
3) Inspect the insert buttons, (one on each side of the moveable cam)
If worn or missing, replace all 6 buttons, 40 series only 3 Use a pair of pliers to remove any remaining buttons and press in new ones.
REASSEMBLE:
1) Insert the spring tang in the number one hole of the fixed cam, place the spring and cam down over the post of the fixed post and only push the fixed cam down about ¼” at this time. (Do not push it down all the way)
2) Rotate the movable face (the part that contains the buttons) 120 degrees, 1/3 of a turn counter clockwise if it has a blue or red spring, clockwise if it has a green spring.
3) Once rotated, hold in the moveable face so it doesn’t back off, push he fixed cam down all the way and replace the retaining ring.
4) Return the driven unit to the jackshaft.
