[TECH] Belts

[lacelle@frontiernet.net (Erik La Celle)]

Absolutely nothing to be sorry about!, and I'm sure this can be done (one
v-belt for everything).  But, you're asking the actual dimensions...

Take a string and wrap it around the pulleys to measure. (If the pulleys
don't line up, don't do this without changing pulleys -- hard to know -- was
a/c and p/s removed?)  Make sure your alternator position is somewhere in
the middle of the range.  Take the string to your favorite parts place...If
it's like it is around here, they will be able to measure your string (on a
wall mounted thing with 2 dowels (one slides) and a bunch of numbers on the
side) and they should be able to hook you up with a belt.  Since you're in
the middle of the range, you can compensate by adjusting the alternator
