ok tidied up pics........yes i remember seeing your pic of the crap pulley......white stuff could well be the white plastic ( nylon ) washer affair coming out.
thanks for the heads up dudes.
DONT BUY STUFF OFF EBAY its a ripoff merchants dream!!
as to the pulley that the car came with, it must be the wrong one for the car as offset is incorrect? and it is damaged, the missing chunk of the inner drive peak which is well polished, probably helping all the belt flapping about on the run between the a/con and crank pulleys.
interestingly the gates tech site says the pulley must not be run without a belt fitted, and the bolt torqued up in 3 stages, a third at a time.
