thieaux Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Guys i honestly havent had any luck mith this car, My drive belt started squeeking and all of a sudden slipped off the pullys , and all my lights went on . I checked and my drive belt is new not even one crack on the ribs. What gives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwest Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 One of the pulleys msialigned or shaft retaining nut loose. It was the alternator pulley that did that to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obergc Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Maybe a frozen bearing somewhere in the serpentine belt path ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenore Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I agree either one of the idlers is failed or one of the components driven by the drive belt froze up or has a great deal of drag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thieaux Posted January 6, 2006 Author Share Posted January 6, 2006 nope all of the pulleys move freely, , although the idler pulley did move freely it didnt look quite right i turned it and felt unblanced like it was wabbling back and for not much, but enouh for me to notice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenore Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Your idler sounds bad to me, should be smooth, and not wobbling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwest Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 That wobble may have very well "walked" your groved belt off of the other pulleys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
