yes, whyIJ age, failure to change pins. Field fix. Keep in mind safety, safety safety. Remove all items outside engine pulley. Mic shaft and note shaft is worn tapered to inside. Obtain wide flat file. Crank machine and use file to make shaft same diameter all the way inside to outside. Now measure it and take outer sheave to machine shop and press in a steel not brass, bushing to give a .010 or as close as possible fit. Replace pins and drill new holes as yours will be oblonged, neat to bush these as well. Keep in mind this is a safety hazard for the careless. Do it at your own risk. Keep all guards and shields in place and avoid loose clothing. We have several we have fixed this way to avoid a new clutch shaft and sheave and $. The correct way to patch this is to remove the main shaft and take to a machine shop during the off season.
