Ideally, a straightedge will give an indication of misalignment even if the pulley flange thicknesses vary. You should be able to see a difference in the gap if they don't match up. The strings are a great method for the grooved pulleys, you can run them groove to groove or face to face, but they won't tell you anything about the idler alignment.
You might have to use a level to determine if the idler is misaligned. You'd have to jack the back of the car up to get a bubble on the belt pulleys, once they're square, and then check the idler.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
