Throwing belts
3 times in the past week the alternator belt has come off, not broken. The first time I replaced it, the alternator was squealing loudly, had the alt. checked, low output, so I upgraded from a 1 wire to a three wire 94amp. At first it seemed fine, but then threw that belt too. I checked the pulley alignment and everything is good. no noises, no pulley wobble, nothing to suggest a problem. Replaced the belt with a different brand and it came off again. Belt tension is good and all looks well but this keeps happening. Any ideas why?
I can't afford to upgrade to serpentine. It's a 350 with alt. on the pass. side, A/C on drivers side. A/C belt doesn't come off, only the alt. belt.
