    Belt smoking with 55 Mando

    Has anyone been running with the Mando and the indigo fresh water kit?

    After being at anchor for 24 hrs, I will get a lot of belt smoke and small chunks of belt when I start the engine. My electrical demands are not that large and I never had any issues with the motorola. I have checked belt tension and alignment several times. The belt will smoke for about 15 mins after the engine is started. I tried some belt dressing but that hasn't done much.

    I'm considering going back to the Motorola and giving up the extra amps.

    Any thoughts?
