Major belt walk

n54_8th_wonderoftheworld · 05-12-2024, 03:17 PM

I recently had new tires put on my car and as soon as the shop started my car the belt shredded took it off found a idler pulley located on the bottom of the tensioner had a sharp grove replaced with new tensioner and both pulleys now the belt is walking over the CRANK and all other pulleys (this happens within the first five seconds of start up)
Any info would be helpful

"I recently had new tires put on my car and as soon as the shop started my car the belt shredded" - How is tire replacement correlated with belts flying off an engine? Bad luck? Someone fiddling with the belt? Makes no sense.
