uh. I think you need to reset your eccentric shaft sensor. I'm sure there are threads here that will not only tell you exactly what you need to reset after installing pulley's, but also how to reset it. Search and you will find everything you need.

No, but here's what you do.

Turn the key to on, but do not start.
Stomp brake pedal about twenty times(quickly) while watching the oil pressure needle until it sweeps all the way to the right and then back. If doesn't sweep, turn off, wait, and then start over.
Turn key off.
Start car as normal, if it's still on, then start over.

Remember to not shut the car off when it's cold.
