Good point Luke - i'd cheat and get the belts on the right pulleys before ordering new ones and run it in between whiles.

Granted the rusty pulleys will damage the old belts but they will clean the pulleys ready for the new belts.

I've found this method tends to be a bit more thorough for cleaning and a lot less labour intensive. It's certainly not text-book but is a very useful temporary bodge in that it cleans the pulleys ready for the new belts.

A guy at work decided to hold sandpaper on the pulley with the engine running... he now has half a middle finger. Last week he was doing it again!!!

Reminds me of Nursie in Blackadder

Oh yes! My brother had this brilliant idea of cutting his toenails with a scythe, and his foot fell off!
