Bought new belt that runs the hydraulic drive and steering, it runs for a while then it slips off. I tightened it as much as I could and it still slips off.

look at the belt tensioner while the car is running and see if it is jumping up and down and if it is replace the tensioner

If the belt keeps coming off the pulley you have an alignment problem. Check the idler pulley on the truck to see if it is loose or has a worn out bearing. You need to get the pulley that is crooked replaced or shimmed. Did you by chance change the water pump and now have the problem?

If the belt keeps slipping off the you need to replace the tensioner(its the pulley you have to move to get the belt on and off,and that part should be inexpensive to replace from any parts store.

if the serpen tine belt slipped off chances are that the spring loaded adjuster pulley is no longer functioning like it should replace the belt tensioner assembly and new belt. you can also purchase a repair manual at an auto parts store for very little as well as ther parts. there should also be a diagram under the hood that shows the correct rounting of the serpentine belt.

Hi!!
Just apply some ENGINE DEGREASER on the belts and pulleys, rinse them with plain water, making sure the electrical components don't get wet. That will take care of your problem.
