Getting to much noise from what?
They're all tight like that.I imagine the belt is hitting the upper water pump pulley, I can only get the belt so tight. I've given up and will put the kit (pulleys) up for sale.
OK, so I don't understand what you mean, what is the wrong direction? I appreciate your time.They're all tight like that.
To give up on the correct pullies is many steps in the wrong direction, in my opinion.
Looking at your PS pump position it appears to be adjusted way out. Here’s a pic of mine, you can see the difference. When adjusted correctly it won’t touch the fan pulley statically but will very lightly touch it when running as the belt shakes. It should be silent with no squeaks. I suspect you have the wrong crank and possibly fan pulley. A look at the parts books shows these as the right parts-I imagine the belt is hitting the upper water pump pulley, I can only get the belt so tight.

John, The pullies I was using were the one supplied in the Kit from Bou........, I have no problem when I put the ac pulleys back on. What I need are big bock pulleys from a car w/o ac. Those are not easy to find in good condition. Thanks for the time mikeLooking at your PS pump position it appears to be adjusted way out. Here’s a pic of mine, you can see the difference.
