I having a issue right now with the supercharger. I pulled out of my driveway and everything was fine. Than I noticed that there was something a little off. I wasnt running any boost. I pulled over asap. I was only a few hundred feet from my home. I looked under my car and the supercharger belt was all tore up. The hub of the supercharger was completely seperated from one side. There is pics of everything in my profile. There is also some liquid on the same side as my supercharger in the engine bay. Maybe supercharger oil?? I just got the ott stage stage one on the car less than 6 months ago. I havent seen any other person with this issue. Any help or suggestions?

 

pulley could have moved back and forth on the supercharger snout because of a broken keeper ring inside the supercharger..if there are any performance shops around u you may wanna go ahead and have them take a look at it.. could have made the belt rub on the block and fray it.. i say this from experience lol

 

that looks like it was not pressed down all the way, causing the belt to be mis-aligned. i have never seen a broken pulley though

wow this forums server sucks

 

I know that the pulley was pressed all the way down. If it wasnt wouldnt have it busted sooner? Could it all have happened after the hub snapped in two?

 

lol thats what i was thinkin... i think we may have gotten our point across after it being said 9 times each

ive never heard of a hub snapping..mighta been a freak thing..why the oil then though? is there a leak anywhere on the supercharger? snout? pool under car?

 

I was like Holy Crap nine replies in five minutes opened the page and was disappointed lol. There is no oil under the car on the supercharger or the engine. Checked the dipstick and had oil there. Didnt check the snout but there was nothing dripping on that either. Maybe the belt knocked one of the hoses loose or my windshield wiper fluid?

 

lol yeah sry to disappoint .. umm the belt would really have to be movin around to knock somethin like that loose..i honestly think ur best bet is to take it to a shop and get it checked out.. or throw another hub on there and turn it on and watch it idle..watch for any movemement...squeeking etc. if the hub just snapped..coulda been a freak accident..whatd the liquid smell like? if u smelled it.

 

My Mechanic is gonna make a house call tomorrow lol so no worries bout going to a shop. The smell did smell like oil. I just couldnt see where it was coming from. I know the belt isnt moving around I have checked that. Be so much easier if its just the pulley.

 

u may be in luck then

 

Well I hope OTT gets back to me about this. And Let me know if they have had any similar issues with this.
