  1. Hi. Im trying to get some information on one of the pulleys on my Loyale. I changed the belts today and the rear one started smoking badly (the old one was loose and about 2/3 the width of a new one. So, I pulled the belts and inspected the pulleys. Two of them had old melted rubber caked on them so I cleaned that then I felt around inside the other pulley tracks. One pulley is rusted inside the track and rough as a cobb. Its the smallest one below the alternator that loosens to replace the rear pulley. I figure that is what is grinding away at the new rubber and making it smoke. Does anyone know what that is called or where I can find a replacement? I considered removing it and sanding it down smooth but it will require a special phillips tool to get in there horizontally, which I'll need no matter what happens. Thanks for taking time to read and in advance for helping if you are so inclined. Roy
