Reciently I've been blowing belts badly to the point were I can not drive the car.
If I track the belt correctly and start the car, it will immediatly jump one rib towards the engine on the AC pully.
Eventually this belt will wear out and slip off the tensioner and snap.
At a shop, me and a mechanic checked the allignment and it seemed straight. All the pullies are bolted down tightly and all seems fine. The shop couldn't find out what was wrong and said it would take some costly analysis.
I limped the car home, breaking down twice.
The next hunch leads me to the tensioner. How do I know if its bad?
Thanks for the help.
