Judging from the video your belts are a size too small. Replace your belts with a set that fit flush or just above the outer edge of the pulley's. While the belts are off, take the time to clean the pulley's and if that slipping belt polished the inside of the pulley, use a file to deglaze the shine and burnt rubber. Once a belt slips inside of the walls of a pulley, it's just a matter of time before it looses it's grip and over tightening will only wear out alt. or power steering pump bearings... http://www.bdi-usa.com/FileUploads/C...e_posters_both[0].pdf
