Not much of a Clutch guy but I am using the dayco belt and have noticed the belts are rubbing on the primary at an idle and flattening the cogs on the bottom of the belt and sometimes will squeal anyone have an answer for me

Remove a shim under your secondary end cap!

If the belts squeals the belt is to tight in a spot. Meaning either the clutch is out of line or the belt is shorter and that means you have to remove a shim from from the cap that the bolt runs through. You can change the shim size. There should be some in your tool kit or just go into your dealer and they should have some.

Best belt so far. Its a little softer so it doesn't slip as much as the Cat 082. I don't know if the belt you are running is shorter?
