Re: wire brush noisey pulleys++

It can't hurt, but I think it's not necessary, if you have a bit of rust on the belt. The belt itself tends to polish the pulley as the engine runs.

However, if the pulley had seized earlier and you have big lumpy globs of burned rubber on the pulley then a bit of wire brushing is a good idea.
