Specifications
Problem:
The tensioning pulley supplied with the kit breaks apart after
a short period of operation, normally resulting in damage to
the engine.
Cause:
This is due to faulty alignment of the belt drive. The tensioning
pulley is subjected to of-center loading and fails after a short
running time.
Solution:
To ensure correct belt alignment, it is vital that the tension pul-
ley bracket is cleaned thoroughly, and that you subsequently
check that the entire surface of the pulley is properly seated on
the journal.
