How to get belt on pulley

Help…how do i get the belt back onto the pulley? Anything on a spring is removed giving me full motion but still not enough…

Tiller suddenly stopped tilling and when i removed covers i noticed it was off. been fighting with this belt for longer than I care to admit. This is directly underneath the motor.

Hope you are all well out there!

This doesn’t seem right

Trying to rewire my Columbia zero turn. Bolts holding the positive wire on the stud were extremely corroded. I’m assuming the stud shouldn’t move like this? Almost feels like it’s on a spring.

Oil leak?

I have a Husqvarna YTH2348 from 2008, I've had it for 3 summers now. And it's been really good until my last self performed oil change. After that every few seconds to twice a minute see a puff of smoke and smell burning oil.
The pics show where I see the oil pooling, but I'm not sure where it is really coming from.
I did make sure the oil filter was tightened hard.
Can anyone more knowledgeable than me help me figure where it's leaking?

Help

I have a Husqvarna Yth22v 42 inch riding mower. The carb messed up and it will not run. So I purchase a carb from Amazon. Everything I read said it was a 2 barrel carb but after taking it apart it has a single barrel carb.

For extra power because it is really weak can I use this carb. I know I have to change the manifold.

So I ordered the manifold and it should be here today and I should have asked this before hand but didn't.

Next question is are there any other things I need to do to get it to work. I'm searching now for a air box replacement so the air filter will fit.

Help!

Log Splitter- Briggs/Stratton

Got this splitter on marketplace. Briggs Stratton 130202 engine, pictures attached. Runs nicely, split a couple cords this morning.

I want to give it a tune up. Going to replace plug, clean, want to change engine oil. What oil would you use, should I go synthetic? Anything else I should do?
