Issue with screetching belt noise.
One other thing to watch out for...maybe this is rare but it happened in my case. The tensioner adjusting bolt had been overtightened in an attempt to tighten a stretched belt. The overtightening of the bolt actually bent the ears on the tensioner "bracket" rendering it useless to sufficiently tension a new belt. The bracket is made out of pretty soft metal, so be careful. I tried beating mine back into shape with a hammer before giving up and pulling a tensioner bracket from a salvage G that I had access to.
If you're getting the correct belt tension with the gauge, then most likely not a bent bracket in your case, but wanted to post for others.
