Delay alt turn on?


Recommended Posts

AND PLEASE BE CAREFUL

Ever seen pics of a finger that got caught between a finger and a pulley? Pretty much looks like it got shut in a fryer. Looked SO SORE

couldnt you replace one of the alternators mounting bolts with a bolt on idler pulley?

Its pretty damn tight in there, water pump is in the way.

I'm telling you, try the bar of soap idea. It wont hurt anything. Just start the car, while running hold the bar of soap against the belt, both sides and the under belly.

Tried that today, ti helped some. I sprayed some engine degreaser on the belt and pulleys too. I may have it stopped but not sure. I know when i start the car now it stumbles pretty hard when the alt kicks on.

With some fabricating I think I can actually do that. I think I just got frustrated with it. 4 belts and 3 brackets will do that to a guy.
