Coming home today I was waiting for the light to change at a busy intersection when the engine stopped and smoke came from under the hood.
I hopped out and took a look under the hood and there was coolant everwhere on the passenger side and so I pushed it to a parking lot with the help of a kind stranger.
I saw that the outer belt was loose because the one pulley appears to have slipped.
The wrecker just dropped it off at the house.
I'm assuming that the smoke I saw was from the belt rubber.
Anyone had something like this happen? Maybe the water pump came loose. I probably screwed something up when I did the timing belt and water pump change this past Spring.
What a day... but it could have been worse.
