POS Serpentine belt problems..HELP!!!!
POS Serpentine belt problems..HELP!!!! Hey guys, im having a problem with my serpentine belt. It keeps coming off for some reason. I replaced the belt with a new one because i thought maybe the old belt got stretched out. So i swapped them and its still doing it. It seems like it does it when i go WOT in the car. Im thinking it might be my idler pulley or possibly even the crank pulley, if anyone has advice PLEASE help me out, im desperate. Thanks Alot.

I have the Magnuson blower on my car and every time I would romp on my car, it would throw the belt. After calling Magnuson, I found out that there is an update that runs a bolt through the tensioner to a bracket which is in turn bolted to the head. It quit tossing the belt until last week it ripped the idler pulley off including part of the big aluminum bracket. I pulled it out, tig welded the crap out of the bracket and am back in business for now. I would make sure all pulleys aligned, make sure no bearings are gone in idler or any other pulley with the belt off and check the tensioner for deflection under load.
