For some reason it starts with the inside edge. Against the motor.

More then likely one of the pulleys are out of alignment with the rest. You replaced all the pulleys? More detail?

Take the belt off and spin each Acc. by hand and look to make sure the pullies travle straight. I had a PS pully that was bent that caused that. Also make sure the ballance is ok and travles straight. Make sure there are no bolts backing out and rubbing the belt. And finally make sure the brackets have not cracked any place.
