ALTERNATOR BELT BURNING UP

[gisxr750]

ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT TO DO. ALTERNATOR BELT GETS HOT AND SNAPS, USUALLY WITHIN 10 MINUTES OF PUTTING IT ON. I REPLACED ALTERNATOR, SANDED THE PULLIES AND PAINTED THEM ALTHOUGH THEY DIDN'T LOOK LIKE THEY WERE IN TERRIBLE CONDITION TO ME<br />BUT I GAVE IT A TRY IF U LET THE BOAT IDLE FOR 10 MINUTES AND SHUT IT OFF, IF U TOUCH THE BELT IT IS EXTREMELY HOT AND THE ALTENATOR PULLY IS HOT AND THE WATER PUMP PULLY AND THE CRANK PULLY ARE COOL. I WAS HAVING THIS PROBLEM BEFORE I REPLACED ALTERNATOR. 1994 5.8 EFI KING COBRA <br />THANKS THIS BOAT IS KILLING ME HAS NOT MADE IT OUT ON THE WATER YET FOR NO LONGER THAN A HALF AN HOUR A SHOT THIS SUMMER!!!
