<VV> Fan belt tension

The Clark wrapped belt does jump around a lot but stays on for me.  If I ever have to replace one maybe I'll try the Top Cog.

I like the wrapped belts, however the Top Cog is more flexible and jumps around less than the wrapped stiffer belt.

I have the Underground spring loaded Robson idler installed on two studs with double locked nuts, and the idler moves less with the more flexible belt than with the wrapped stiffer belt.
