Help with P1 idler pulley on 01 gt
The idler pulley (attaches to the alternator) on my 01 gt has some issues.
I think the bearings may be shot. It doesn't make any noise and spins, but it obviously isn't spinning fast enough. The belt has has worn a considerable groove in the pulley. Its to the point where the edge is sharp enough to cut your finger...and is cutting the edge of the belt up.
I thought about replacing the pulley, but it might do the same thing. Also, that pulley from ati is $80 shipped. I would much rather get a billet pulley if possible. Does anyone make anything like that? Any other options?
