ID these pulleys for me?

chrisificti0n · April 20th, 2011, 02:09 PM

I'm trying to figure out what all the PO did to my car before I had it.

The two pulleys in the middle, the silver ones, I can't find these anywhere. American Muscle has similar ones, but not for the 3.8... my alternator is not putting out enough power at idle under load, and I'm afraid they aren't the proper sizes. Definitely aren't the stockers..

Are you trying to get it back to it's stock condition? Cheapest route is the junkyard I would say...

chrisificti0n · April 20th, 2011, 02:21 PM

I'm just afraid they put something on that will affect the load on the alternator. If my alternator is not putting out enough amperage because it is failing, that's one t hing.. but if it is working properly and the issue lies with something like the pulleys being the wrong size, I don't want to waste my money replacing the alternator.

The crank pulley looks like a steeda one, the water pump looks like a standard light weight pulley. whats your voltage at idle?

Crank and water pump. I have the same ones.

Motoblue 42% UDP.

if you still want power, go to %25

Mr Pony... Ding ding ding! I have been trying to figure out my low voltage at idle issue.. Don't have a number yet but after 90 or so seconds at idle in drive I am dropping to the left side of the gauge until I get going. I always assumed t was the alternator until I realized "hey those aren't stock". Red, do you have the same issue with voltage?

Mr. Red Pony · April 21st, 2011, 08:52 AM

Nope. Do you have subs? I also set my idle I little higher.

You get junk at junk yards..

If you need stock pulleys, I have a set of stock pulleys and belt I'll trade you for yours.

chrisificti0n · April 21st, 2011, 07:13 PM

I'm going to try and bump my idle up and see if that doesn't relieve the charging issue a little before I revert to stock but I'll keep it in mind.. I have an 800w amp, headlights have LEDs in them, chrome projector headlights (they have additional LEDs..), reverse glow gauges. I used to have a CB radio as well.. hah.

I really appreciate the help. Saved me the headache of installing a new alternator and not even resolving the issue.

The actual alternator installation wouldn't have been a part of the headache. I called into work one day because my alternator went out and I had to get it fixed so I could get to work the next day. Had the whole afternoon to do it, bummed a ride to get a new alternator, and found out our alternators can be changed in a whopping 10 minutes

Paying for a remanufactured alternator, installing it, taking him my old one, then having to undo all of that when it didn't help anything would have been a PITA.. especially since I would have to take off from work to get up there. Oh yeeeeah.

Voltage at idle was 12.49v at battery. At 3000 or so, voltage was 13.52v. The idle voltage falls over the course of a few minutes.
