Default Re: re packing a water pump

IDEALLY, a belt will run around 1/2 of a pulley. On the T, the flat belt barely contacts about 1/8 of the circumference making slipping a real possibility. Tighten it TOO MUCH and its tough on the adjuster pulley bushings. or the water neck pulley bushings on the 26-27 models. ws
