I have had this car for 3 years and it now has 132,xxx miles on it. Its a 1993, with the 1.6L in-line 4. It wasn't a problem until recently when the belt disappeared while driving. So after replacing the belt is still squealed but 3 days later the belt burnt off, again replaced it, squeal stopped a day later it started and then the belt snapped and looks like it burned up.
This is the alternator belt, so i replaced the alternator (15year old alternator seem like a good cause) but it still squeals and i am going crazy trying to figure this out, because i have a good understanding of cars. The only things on this belt are the Cam pulley (the other belt on this pulley is fine), a free floating pulley, spins very freely, and the alternator.
Any ideas as to what could be causing this and possibly how to fix it?
