Question...
How do you get the idler pulley out...
my power steering hard lines are in the way. I've shredded 2 ribs off my belt so i thought it was time to replace... replaced the belt today with a new one
Shredded that belt in 2min... I'm starting to think there's a pulley that's messed up or something
Idler is a cheap fix so i was going to remove it. However i can't get the bolt out all the way do i just have to yank? I feel it loose but don't want to damage anything

Also has anyone experienced shredding belts ac belts?
I have an 09. I didn't notice belt problems until i removed the ac belt to put on a different supercharger pulley. Once i put it back on i started having issues. Now about to buy my 3rd belt.... it's getting expensive. Any suggestions
