Om not sure what is wrong. I put a new belt on my scrammy about 4 or 5 months ago and its already loosing the threads. I know these belts should last longer than that. What can cause belts to losse thread or shred or what ever. Any tips would be helpfull

 

Could be a bad belt that happens alot, I would suggest checking clutch alignment. Did you smoke your belt at all?

 

no i never had the belt realy smoke. It just starts to loose thread and eventually gets shredded

 

Should check alignment thats most likly what the problem is.

 

how do i check the allighnment, if its off, how do i fix it

 

Need to get an alignment tool, adn you should proabably get a service manual as well but to check alignemt once you get an alignemt bar you place the alignment bar on priamary clutch and check for proper off set from primary to secondary clutch the manual gives you the proper offset as well which should be about a 1/8" to 3/16" it a good thing I check the manual I have doesn't give spec it pretty lame. But once you have placed the alignemet tool on the primary clutch you will be able to see what you have for an offset. Its pretty simple and easy.

 

if it is off how do i adjust it back. Is it hard

 

U might look to the dealer to fix u up on this one, if it is off, u have to add or take away shim from the secondary.

Also check for primary clutch sheave grooving near the center, or cracks near center.

 

I have checked all of that and it is nice and smooth, no grooves or nothing. Its got to be allighnment or maybe i just get bad belts, what do you think?

 

If your sure the clutch is in good shape, then get the clutches aligned, if u call it bad belts, it will happen 6 mnths from now.
