Hi,

I would be happy to help. Is the sound loud enough to record and upload for me to hear? It sounds like the belt may be bad, loose, or contaminated. Also, are you certain the belt is routed correctly? See pic below.

Let me know.

Joe

Also, let me know if there is anything you do that changes it.
