Team 3.6 members-having alternator pully problems and need help
I purchased 5 new shims, a new belt and a new nut to put my alternator pully assembly back together and it still did not fix the problem I'm having. When the car is running there is a sound of metal rubbing together and the alternator nut (furthest nut on the end) gets extremely hot. It melted the last belt I had on there and the color of the nut changed due to the extreme heat. A few of the shims became out of round and essentially disintegrated. What the heck is going on? Has anyone had this problem? How do I fix it?
BTW, its and early 964 3.6 with the dual pulleys.

Too big to fail

I'm going to WAG that the bearing in between the two shafts has gone west.

I don't know anbout the early 3.6's but the 993's have two different length belts available - one is a little smaller - maybe you don't have the right belt.
