Sorry to steal your thread again, but it was already started so I figured why not use it :biggrin2.gif:
So as I was in the process of taking the sprocket off, I realized that all the set screws (both ends) were loose. So I adjusted the shaft/sprocket and tightend the set screws and everything seems fine. I did the driveway today and there was no sign of the chain hitting anymore.
My question is, would the loose set screws be the cause of the problem or is there still something wrong? I still have intentions of taking the entire unit apart and replacing any worn parts. When I do this, I was planning on putting the brass washers in there anyways to avoid future problems. Will this be ok even if it is working as is?
