I replaced it with one of the $22 ones at Oreillys. But the original one sure did look strange.

Took it for a spin and so far so good. My 13name year old took a short little vid of the test drive inside. I promised her that I would only accelerate hard in 1st and 2nd. That car scares the crap out of them.

Rick, I replaced my pulley 3 years ago with one just like that and it has been just fine for 9000 miles (so far) and many trips to 7200+ (like at least once every outing(!)).

I love kids and young people like crazy! Mine are grown now, and I can tell ya they're out on their own so very quick. You'll treasure vids and pix of them forever. Now, I'm looking forward to making vids and pix of my new grandson; the circle of life, I recon.
