also, IIRC, the bolt holding the tensioner pulley on is reverse-threaded.

--Update


Thanks again guys, had it checked out a few times today by different people and well, it was the belt tensioner, it failing caused the bearing to go inside the pulley so i had an entire new belt tensioner put in. Good as new!

Yikes..new pulley is only like $20

Yeah new pulley was about that, thing was my tensioner was on the way, it was leaning out of place and you could see it bright as day...had to be done.

It'* good you replaced it before it failed. Mine seized up on the highway in a spectacular cloud of molten serpentine belt, which ripped through part of my power steering pump'* reservoir.

Tow + tensioner + PS pump + AC compressor (which was bad anyway) = $$$.
