Just in addition - My belt started acting funny then shredded. I pulled the pulleys off and they look fine but I did find this little telltale mark behind the drive pulley: 13693596458590.jpg This tells me the little washer behind the drive pulley is worn thin and letting the inner pulley touch the ...
