I'll loosen tension a bit and see. I ended up shimming the idler pulleys out 2mm to get the belt to get full engagement with the crank pulley. Have you run into this issue at all? Has anyone? I feel like this thread is empty now, should I start a fresh one for others to chime in? Not complaining, just curious.
I also noticed my pulleys have way too much play in the bearings towards the engine and back towards the radiator side. Honestly I wanted to have this kit work out but it appears quality/function is as bad as reported by others. I should have listened to my gut and went with the Jackson kit. Kraftwerks has yet to get back with me, and I assume a phone call will leave me on hold for another hour like before. I'm tempted to pull the kit and sell it on.
