Converting from a generator to an alternator and I am wondering about belt alignment. This has become more than I bargained for but I knew this would happen. Running a straight edge from alt pulley to water pump pulley with the belt on and everything tighten, over the distance of 9” I am out 1/32”.
The alternator is “cocked” a bit off but is that misalignment enough to give me grief ? Toss the belt, or squeal ?
I am not at the point to fire it up yet as there are several more connections to make.
