Stranded

New IMA tensioner and idler at the beginning of Feb., 4,000 miles ago. They said it may have no been on right since there were wear marks on the edge of the pulley. I remember checking by sight and feel if it was on correctly, and it seemed to run true after the tensioner install. Well, I have screwed up before, so they may be right. The belt did get oil and coolant on it when I did the oil filter adapter gaskets and I cleaned it up with alcohol. Maybe that did it in.

They suggested checking the water pump since there were pieces of belt everywhere. I told them go ahead, better to be on the safe side since my daughter is the primary driver.

Doesn't your car have an electric water pump? Not drive by the belt?

They just shopping for stuff to sell you or what??
