The secondary goes in when you pull the belt up.

Stationary hub must be worn, try dry graphite aerosol on hub
The secondary goes in when you pull the belt up.
This might be a primary issue...because if the secondary goes in when you pull the belt up, it is able to create tension. I wonder if the primary is sticking open but snaps shut when you basically come to a stop.
If it were me, I'd pull the belt off, pull the springs out of both the primary and secondary and actuate them in and out to check for any binding or freeplay. Something between the 2 is binding up and likely very worn.

The secondary was froze up on the shaft could this have caused the issue
This would be the old reverse cam driven. When you put the spring in did you turn it roughly 120 degrees before it went over the towers to tighten down. (clockwise)

Yes

If it was frozen up with significant misalignment, maybe.
But points more to me that there is a lot of corrosion and your main bushings in the secondary are likely in need of cleaning or replacement.
I replaced the 3 some sized ones and the brass bushing
