As far as adjustment goes, if you need to change the C-2-c of the driver/driven pulleys, you need to loosen the jackshaft AND engine mount bolts and shift the jackshaft back. A lot of times, there's very little room to do so. You have to be careful with the realignment of the pulleys, beign a little off will chew up a belt pretty fast.

Thanks for your input. I think dragon is right. I think it's the right belt, but the idle bushing is missing and is probably causing the problem. I don't get how it ran ok missing this bushing with the old belt, but I've got this part on order. Wouldn't it be nice if it was easy as this?
