I have gone to several local parts stores in my area. I've purchased 3 ac belts from 3 stores. Each of them are to big (the belt tensioner adjuster goes to the max, yet the belts are still to loose). Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaper1 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Try asking them for a belt 1" less in length. There were at least 2 different tensioner pulleys over the years and maybe it got replaced with the wrong one sometime in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkmate Posted August 19, 2017 Author Share Posted August 19, 2017 I believe I have solved my problem. It appears the idler pulley had been changed and was to small which did not allow the proper adjustment on the belt. Got a NOS pulley to install. Stay tuned.

TwinCamFan Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Seems like the long way around the block to me but if it works for you You know you can shop for belts by size instead of application, which if you have as many motors with custom parts as I do is a much better option anyway... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkmate Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 Problem solved. I replaced the idler pulley with a NOS part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
