Oops - I inadvertently hijacked Amazonphil's thread with my question. But thanks so much for both answers. Dave, you definitely shed some light on my issue, and I hope that the alignment process you described helps Phil (I certainly found it useful). The most important bit I got from your post was the confirmation of the appearance of some inward adjustment remaining even with everything slacked. Good to know there isn't something else going on in my situation. As for that, the Monroe muffler shop that did the belts for the previous owner put on a 900mm long belt, which is shorter than the factory belt by 50mm and the Continental by 68mm. I'll be replacing all the belts with Contis - I've used them in the past, and they are half the price. On my car, they are due based on time (receipt for job is 7 years old).
