Exclamation Lightn'd Crank Pulley <PROBLEM>

I just got the crank pulley installed with the needed belts but they said it was a pretty tight fit. And now ONLY when its cold and I start the engine it theres a loud noise coming from where the pulley is, not to mention theres a slight knocking. But then warms up and dosnt do it anymore! Big differance in power though!!

*Could it just be new belts???

*Can anyone help me, I dont want to make problems worse???

..Mabey I should loosen it up a little....

Thank You

Sounds to me like it needs to be tightened, not loosened. Sounds typical of a loose belt.

tighten your belt, and check to see if your auto tensioner is faulty so you can get it replaced if needed. call your dealership and give them your VIN: they'll let you know.
