Default Re: 181 pulley responsible for belt rib cutting problem

I pulled my belt off tonight and checked the pulleys. I found that three pullies have minimal play in them.............waterpump pulley, tensioner and the s/c pulley. Of the three the s/c pulley has the most play and the other two are VERY minimal. The worst thing I've found is that my crank pulley is sticking out about one belt rib too far when comparing it to the tensioner. I tightened all the 1/4'' allen bolts holding the crank pulley together and tried tightening the crank bolt further with my 1/2'' impact to no avail. I have since pulled out the crank bolt and attempted to remove the pulley by hand(since it slit into place that way) but it doesn't want to budge so far. I will try giving it a little persuasion tomorrow to get it off to compare to my stock pulley.
