o am the bearings in my idler pulley seized and caught the plastic pulley on fire , my saab viggin had the same problem over and over again as do most saab owners , this being said there are a few people making aluminum pulleys for saab's does any one make them for the crossfire ?
i've had to have mine replaced, it just popped out like some unwanted pregancy...but it was minor, i had fixed for about 40 bucks, but the belt didnt rip....im surprised it caught fire..were u driving so fas that the fan hit it...
