What should I use to lubricate my Pulleys? 200

Beetle,
Right... there is no need to lubricate the shafts the pullies are connected to or rotate on. That is not where/how the problem originates. The problem is usually pullies that are misaligned due to wear and rot affecting the rubber bushings that center the alternator, power steering pump, a/c, etc... A harmonic balancer dampens crankshaft vibration. Its location is on the front of the motor, right in the center. It has a main pulley on it where all the belts, from the right and left of the motor, pass around. Hope this helps.
