An illuminating thread.

A number of us have discussed pulleys getting out of line by varying amounts. I sorted mine easily with washers.

A couple of years ago I cleaned the contact faces of the pulleys. Perhaps that was a mistake.

Perhaps replacement pulleys are expensive or only second hand and worn now?

If one does resort to third party belts, how would one get a matched pair? What might the tolerance be between the lengths of the two belts to be matched?

So far as I have noticed, my 240 does not have the problem sound of the belts. I do as always seek to learn.
