It sounds like the two middle belt pulleys are not in line, check to see if you have both pulley shafts spaced and installed correctly.

Sounds like the pulleys are out of alignment as said above. A picture would help.

Shouldn't be. Couldn't imagine that being the problem.

too many ass holes on this site (or is that the world in general?)-nothing offensive was said, why cant you just tell him what you found that made the belt behave as he described?

share your knowledge and lets move on...thus disproving my theory that the world is made up of ass holes...we are all here to help each other not to brag about how much more we know than someone else. I am sure the recipient of your wisdom will thank you personally on here if your information proves to be useful.
