Actually I've run mine on a jack on the lift and watched it go from one side to the other on the rear pulley as you go from drive to coast with the engine running.   Max


By golly, I'm glad that someone finally agreed with me.  The on and off again engine torque is going to pull the pulley and cause the belt to shift from side to side continuously because the pulley is rubber cushioned.  Therefore a "static' adjustment to center the belt is a waste of time.

Just align the wheel and leave the belt looser to get rid of squeak.

Well that's what this topic was all about. Align the wheel and the belt might not be centered just like in the pictures Smiley
