[QUOTE="Dana, post: 470219, member: 4521"] Did you think I was kidding when I said it was tight? Change the belt to a smaller size, it's easier. To move the lower idler pulley, you will have to remove that mounting bracket. Not difficult, but time comsuming. Belt size may not be the issue, unless it's really loose. If the adjuster is reasonably close to center, a smaller belt will not help, except for the few minutes its new. Then the slip will return. You should have also installed the 3rd idler and replaced the original idlers with larger ones too to enhance belt wrap. Do this if you haven't done so already. You will never eliminate belt slip entirely (especially with a 2.75 upper) with this type of drive system, regardless of what you may read. What type of boost pressure are you seeing at the moment? Good luck, Dana [/QUOTE]
