I just got my new block in my boat and just got the engine going for about 5 minutes. the alternator/water pump belt started smoking so i shut her down. the belt continued to melt around the alternator pulley. I left it go till everything cooled down and the belt then was crispy at that spot and split due to brittle cracking. Anyone know what's going on?
I will say i did forget to take the battery charger off the battery when this was happening, I had a 10 amp charge going, also the battery was drained from me cranking the engine so much because I was dumb and took a good while to figure out the spark plug wire order on the cap.
Thanks for any input.
