ABF alternator belt hits Water pump pulley help??

[churchygti]

Afternoon All,

I have just purchased my first vw a golf estate which by its previous life had a 2.0 16v ABF engine fitted. On inspection the alternator belt is damaged and must hit the water pump pulley, Im sure this would have something to do with the engine swap but not certain what i need to do/modify to rectify this problem.

Im thinking that the alternator or water pump is incorrect i.e. taking from the 1.8 engine and never sorted.

Any ideas would be very helpful

Thanks pics below

They obviously didn't have a donor car. Or something failed and they replaced with the old parts.

I can only think that fitting abf parts will solve this.

If i could get a photo of an ABF engine it would help narror it down slightly.. It looks to me that the water pump pulley doesnt look correct, if you look at the photo you can see where the belt is hitting as its shiny on the water pump..

Also im new to VW so not sure where this engine has come from other than its an ABF engine lol Soz

oh thats different to mine, i dont have the air con, i have the crank,power steering and water pump on the ribbed belt, then i have the alternator and crank and tensionor on the serpintine belt, therefore i dont have the air con pump. I would imagen its because i have a estate C with an ABF engine conversion.

Its the same engine as yours mate,the power steering pump tensions the belt for the water pump,i know yours doesn't have air con but im sure the only difference is belt length.somethings not quite right hard to tell from your pics

Maybe the water pump or pump pulley is wrong not giving you the clearance needed.

just taken a few more pics ill upload in a min, also edit last post as i was wrong lol... Had it running and the water pump pulley looks incorrect as it rubs on the belt.

On your picture my alternator belt runs back inbetween my belt tensioner and above the water pump pulley and not below the water pump like on yours.

 The belt is hitting the water pump pulley so i could do with a photo of the correct pulley for my engine.

We could do with a pic of a setup without aircon pump.
