so here is my dilemma....recently purchased this c*** everything seems fantastic.the following cold morning I start the car and I hear this clicking sound but went away after about 45 seconds.after inspecting come to find out the belt is walking left to right in jumping slightly jumping over the alternator pulley which is making the clicking sound.remove belt check I love fully checked tensioner everything seems to be in perfect condition.re install the belt but continued to walk left to rightand continued to ride up over the edge of the alternator pulley can't figure it out. All I can think of tensioner just isn't applying enough tension .picking up new belt and tensioner today and giving it a whirl .I would greatly appreciate any input into this matter .
