1991 Plymouth Acclaim Questions & Answers
1991 plymoth acclaim 4 cylinder and my serpetine
When pulleys are in alignment in both planes - check with a straight edge laid against the face of the pulley - the belt shouldn't come off.
By alignment in both planes it means the pulley grooves should be exactly inline with each other and the shafts the pulleys are mounted on should be perfectly parallel with each other - in addition the belt grooves should be in good condition and each pulley should be round and unbuckled.
In the old days it was necessary to adjust pulley alignment with shims and as many pulleys were pressed steel, a few were egg-shaped by small amounts and usually due to rough handling, some were like a buckled bicycle wheel.
It is many years since those checks had to be made as part of building an engine though whenever a belt-related problem is encountered it is time to dust off the old methods.

Plymouth acclaim wont start,no spark,no fuel
Do me a favor and cycle the key to on, then off, then on, then off, then back to on,& leave it in the on position.(not start) Now watch & record any flashes of the check engine light. You will get a number of flashes, then a pause, then more flashes. for example: 3 flashes, pause, then 3 more, would be code 33. It will always be a 2 digit number. 2 flashes,pause then 5 flashes, is code 25. When you get 5 flashes, pause then 5 more, that's code 55 which means end of message. Get back to us with any codes that flash.
