4kq throwing alternator belts

[Mark E. Johnson]

Hi Folks -

While motoring down the highway, my 86 4kq tossed it's alternator belt. It
rolled off both of the pulleys. It never broke or fell off, but was scored
heavily and obviously not of much use anymore.

I got a new one on without any major incidents.

But after it was on and the motor was running, I noticed quite a bit of a
wobble in the main pulley (at the crankshaft), possibly enough to upset the
belt. Something I should worry about?

TIA.

PS - Thanks to all of you who offered advice on my overheating issue a few
weeks back. Turned out to be a cracked radiator and a bad thermo switch.
Running coolly again.
