Re: 16v engine noise/lower t-belt cover

   I believe it does use one belt and the new water pump pulley has a single
groove instead of two. If you still have the double pulley in use, then that
would be my best guess. I suppose it could also be a dying water pump
bearing too. I'm sure Potterman could better explain the revised setup.

 can also fix you up with a pulley setup that eliminates that pulley but I
 think the cost was around $100.

actually, I dont' have a/c anymore.  the inner pulleys go from the crank,
water pump, and alt.  the outer set goes to water pump, crank and power
steering.  How does this other pulley set work?  Does it use only one belt?
