Hiya ! I could really do with some friendly advice if anybody would be so kind
I have never had problems with losing belts before, but on my way to work today the alternator belt turned it self over ! I managed to put it back on and by the time i had reached work it had turned over again ! This is after 40 miles of testing and no problems
The three pulleys seems to be straight and true and i also have the OE anti-belt jumping metal peg on the water pump. The alternator seems to be adjusted in the correct position to keep tension without destroying the alt bearings, and its the correct belt
The anti-belt jumping peg thing use to work before too, very well, but i have a feeling it may have bent slightly out of position when doing the top-end rebuild.
Is there anything obvious i am missing which would make the belt WANT to turn over?
Do the belts just get old and worn enough to develop abnomal play in them? After 4 years you would i thought i would know this by now !
I have no idea what i am talking about ? Please help me, i love my car and i try to take good car of it Any advice would be greatly appreciated
