"I wonder if the pulley on the generator or water pump are the wrong size spinning the gennerator too fast and blowing them out?"

Not likely. Not at all. Measure the pullys and report back. MOST likely the generators u recieved were bad to begin with.

IF the generator was spun too fast for it's design then there would evidence of thrown armature windings.
