I have an 89 mustang 5.0 with factory a/c. I broke my belt the other day and am now in a pickle. I was looking at the diagram under the hood which shows the direction to route the belt and i see what is called an air pump (not to be confused with a/c compressor). when i look at where this air pump should be, it is not there. i desperately need to know what size belt i need to use. my power steering pump is still there and everything. please help me with this. thanks in advance

Easiest way to figure this out is to take a measuring tape and run it over and under the pullies as if it's the belt. You'll get an exact size this way or close, so you don't have to buy 10 belts. You may need to buy at the most 2 using this method. Good luck!
