Question Help with SC belt please

I just put on a 4# PSP pulley and bought the belt in the instructions.
Install was easy but now I'm having trouble getting the belt on.

How about some helpful hints!

Thanks Guys

keep the belt off the driver's side idler pulley when trying to get the belt over the blower snout.

Once it is on, you should have enough play while keeping the full pressure on the tensioner to slip it into place.

BTW, what belt did you buy?

I just finished installing my 4 lb pulley tonight also... Got a little detonation issue to be resolved though. 32 degrees might have something to do with it...

If it doesn't work or you get too frustrated, try the 080680 belt. It slips right on.

Actually, I like the K080675 for the 4 lb pulley (I know, the directions say the 70, not 75). We use the K080680 for the 6 lb pulleys.
