Message	I still stick to my opinion that this whole thing started with some bimmer that may or may not have blown its engine due to a lightweight pulley (on an I6 for the record) Sure it was a bimmer? The bmw guys argue about pulleys on the forums as much as tt.net people do, yet I've never seen a mention of a bmw engine having blown due to a pulley. Not saying you're lying or wrong or anything... just curious about where you heard it... ///jrb
