    Serpentine belt shredded. Can I get it to the shop?

    Whenever I havethe oil changed I have that looked at. Last time all was well but I suspect it was probably the original belt. The car has about 70k miles on it so it was just time for it to go. I notice that my voltage guage is hovering at less than the half way mark. The belt seems to be snug...

    Serpentine belt shredded. Can I get it to the shop?

    I actually used to keep that kind of stuff in the car but took it out because I didn't like all that stuff in the trunk. I carry a gas can, jumper cables, battery post cleaner but that is it. I'd like to get one of those Roush (SP?) tool kits that installs in the trunk lid but even them the...

    There is no way I could have done that myself without a socket wrench. Glad my homies were still around.

    All is well. It took two people pushing down on that damn thing and one to thread the belt over the alternator. Car fired right up. All is well. I'm keeping one of those ratchets in the car from now on.

    Ahh. They should be more detailed about that. Kind of important stuff and helps to justify the cost.

    Serpentine belt shredded. Can I get it to the shop?

    I just got back from the parts store so I've got the belt. I wore shorts every day for the past month but today it is jeans. I can't wait to get out there in the Florida swamp heat to put this on! To push the tensioner back, which way do I push it if I were standing in front of the car? left or...

    FRPP Blower question

    What is up with the 1100 installation kit? What is in that that makes it cost so much? I'd expect an install kit to be just bolts and such.

    FRPP Blower question

    I may be wrong but I don't think the FRPP blower fits PI heads. I think I've read that in a few places.

    I just may end up doing this in the dark. What do i need to know? What do I need to loosen/move to install it. If I have to install it in the dark I'd like to know as much as possible.

    Serpentine belt shredded. Can I get it to the shop?

    There is someone here with a truck who could probably pull it with a strap if I had one. Problem is that he is an idiot. Knowing him he would gun his truck, stop short, the list goes on. Don't want him anywhere near my car. I do get a luch break but the problem is that my Boss is in...
