Cool video.
Looks like you might have been using a 12V impact gun. Mine was from Harbor Freight. It worked exactly one time as a tool.....now makes a lovely canoe anchor!
Anyway, thanks for the memories.

The guy did everything right. Well, almost.

Why did he not lube the driven pulley's inner bearings !?!?

Also, shooting aerosol solvent at oil seals is NOT a good idea.

Just another semi-botched job from YouTube, my dear.
