:confused:this is prob a no brainer question. but i cant figure it out for the life of me. i removed my ac compressor due to the ac clutch and bearings being seized. removed the adjusting pully and atm im just running a belt straight from the harmonic ballancer to the power steering pulley. now i have done this on other 420a motors and worked just fine and i have seen other people do ths before. but for some odd reason my car seems to not like it. it works great at low rpms. as soon as i get on the gas a little the belt pops off and im stuck getting a full arm work out on the way home trying to steer my car. the belt is not getting ripped or damaged in any way. and when i put it on i put it on with enough tension that it shouldnt pop off . im affraid if i go tighter it may cause the belt to rip. any ideas?????????
