Well, I found out the source of the leaking power steering fluid. The belt put a 2 inch vertical slice into my power steering pump. Didn't know it was plastic. Now on to my next replacement job.

How do you remove the pulley that is behind the motor mount. Cant seem to remember. My bearing locked up and threw the belt. Cant remember how to get the motor mount off.

Sounds like you got some what lucky... I had my supercharger belt snap while driving a few weeks back. Some of my pulleys had seized as well. However, the belt took some pulleys the tensioner and the crank shaft sensore when it went. Just replaced that ang thing to. Just shows you anything can happen with a car.
