Unfortunately, the new '410' seemed loose after I installed it (I could turn the compressor by hand with the belt installed). I ended up installing a Gates K040405 (which in theory should be smaller) sourced from the local jobber. The '405' felt like it had the same tension as the '410' I took off. Any thoughts on possible carnage?
        I am pondering you changing that belt...sounds like the tensioner has went wayward on you.

          While I don't want this thread to be the >>>>head tutoring class, why would the belt I removed not have the same issue? Note: the tensioner was replaced 2 years ago after a nasty "rattling" noise developed.

          • I was going to suggest looking at the tensioner as well.

                how come the freaks hotels fill up before all the freaks make reservations
                +-15 freaks have posted their reservations which list was made from
                I am guessing there are 40-50 freaks in our traveling group

                how come a 100 room hotel fills up before the venue is even announced

                i think next year we may want to do this hotel thing by email

                IT SUCKS WHEN WE CANNOT GET the ROOMS in our little groups

                STILL NO Hot roD venueeeeeeeeeeeeees
                Family Events has started blocking out hotels before they release the venue. I noticed this when I started looking into Stillwater before it was officially announced. Most of the hotels were booked already and one told me it was for the HRPT.

                Does anyone remember when they didn't announce anything about the tour until late January into February?? Not even any clues as to starting and ending cities...

                • Why is it that when I go to Family Events website, I can't find anything on the 2012 Power Tour?!?!? I see the logo for the 2011, and can find all the information on it, but it's not under the calendar, or events tabs. In fact, if you go to calendar, they don't have anything listed for June....... Has anyone else noticed that?!?!?!
