993 V Belts and Temperature
Gents,
My brothers C2S broke the VBelt after only 10K miles, he just replaced it but told me that the alternator shaft end (the nut that holds the pulley half) gets awfully hot.
FYI, belt was replaced after the fan broke due to a problem with an alternator bearing or bushing which was duly repaired and a new fan installed.
Belt deflection with the new belt is at 1/4" (per spec which is 1/4 inches).
Is this high temperature normal?
I wonder if there is a problem which would perhaps explain the premature failure.
TIA, Juan
