Stillen Air to Air setup

A- but wouldn't have a problem with any.

We are installing the trans again. I stopped and got a led flash light so I could take a good look at the belts. Unfortunately I believe both are slipping. Any suggestions on how to stop the serpentine belt from slipping?

Belt Dressing might help. I like the Ranch flavored one best.......

What makes you think your serp belt is slipping? Lots of belt dust around it?

How many miles elapsed from the time you cleaned that bracket to the time you rubbed your finger across it?

Your Automatic tensioner could be worn out.

Did the last shop have it off and not install it properly?

Your local shop can find the tension torque specs.

-Half inch torque wrench, with a 3/8 reducer. put it in the tensioner slot, see what kind of torque it takes to move that baby, should tell you if its worn out or not.

Edit: from identifix

Inspect indicator marks and replace belt if mark is not between reference marks on tensioner. So check for those marks on the tensioner, make sure there inbetween.

It right at the middle of the marks.

Maybe you could open up the tensioner enough to try and spin that pulley to make sure it is spinning like it should?

JWillis72 · 02-03-2016, 04:09 PM

I will try that if we ever get the trans in, this thing is a royal pain to get to line up!

update, I just checked my car.

I have the fine black dust on my serp side aswell.

JWillis72 · 02-03-2016, 04:25 PM

Good to know, maybe we will start with the back and see what that does. Still fighting the trans right now, it just isn't lining up.

The black dust is from the pulleys that are painted black I think...
