So help me understand the concept: As I understand it, the clutched pulley has a one-way sprag clutch in it so that if the belt turns backwards it can freewheel? As the pulses that are induced into the accessory drives from the crank pulley (as the crank slows down and speeds up with the piston movement) occur, the pulley essentially dampens them by letting the pulley freewheel when the crank slows down.
