Sounds to me like you have way too much tension on the belt. The torque on the tensioner is only 21 lbs. If your sure that is correct, I would check the bearings in the water pump and the tensioner. Those are really the only things that would cause it. My first guess would be you have too much tension on the belt. Hope this helps you.
