residue around pulleys ?

[IMG][/IMG]




went to change out my belt the other day and found what is apparently dried coolant residue around the backside of every pulley. Anybody else seen this? Not experiencing a noticeable loss of coolant.

Until you said it was coolant I was thinking it could be one of these in this order.
Cat
Mouse
Squirrel
Possum
Rat

If you recall the cat likes a warm place to sleep and the rodents like the wiring
they thing is is tasty.
But if it's coolant I would start looking at the water pump seal. Try to get a look
at the weep holes on the pump. If you find stains then that is likely the problem.
