I had the same thing, it wrapped around the pump and wrapped/melted on the crank pulley. Extreme mess. Luckily I got the pump freed in situ, after removing the P/S pump. I also had to remove the crank pulley and clean it, as a majority of the belt ended up in a steel-reinforced blob on that.
This was all one day before I was planning to change the upper idler :( So, a 15 minute DIY turned into a day and a half of loud, creative cussing.
Tim, another 2.5 hours labor for the belt/idler? Some of the belt/pulley labor overlaps on the waterpump job.
