underdrive pullley problem

took off my underdrive pulley set and now my car dies or wants to die every time i come to stop. yet the voltage gauge shows around 14 to 16 volts. it just stalls. what did i do wrong? i took it off to get more voltage.

Re: underdrive pullley problem

Belt is too small, and therefore too tight. Too much drag on the motor. Get a bigger (stock size) belt

Re: underdrive pullley problem

Did you take the air intake off, alternator, etc. maybe you forgot to plug something back in.
