wtf is up with this belt? or both these belts. it seems like the alt belt is a lil too big. i stretched it as far as i can but nothing, its too big? this isnt my first belt change so i need to know what the deal is. the guy i bought the car off of said it was the alt belt but can you tell me? i took a pic of the belts. the bigger belt says 17455 <---->13av1155. so can i have a decent diagram of the belt layout? my stupid haynes book doesnt give me a decent clue.
17455 is a A/C belt
at least thats the listing under Dayco belts
i want to get this thing done tonight, but this is whats holding me up. plz reply as quick as possible. i need a good pic of how this goes together. i looked online, but nothing. i need a better book. fuck haynes
a/c belt huh? then it isnt an alt belt? is the other one an alt belt? also do i need to take off my motor mount or not. the reason being i'd like to just blame my buddy, but i cut em off. it needed all belt replaced anyway. dam i wish i never cut and not looked........
motor mount does not have to come off that I know off unless your car is designed differentlyOriginally Posted by badbobb

im just being dumb im sorry man. originally i thought that since the belt has teeth on it, it must be wrong. i thought it might need a vbelt. well, i called autozone to clearify if the belt is in fact an alt belt. and the douche said it was. i thought it didnt take much time for him to answer me and agree. well im back out there looking and figuring, and my neighbor agreed with me saying its a vbelt. attack of the autozone idiots!!! i hate them so much.....
no worries, just as long as you get it done.
thats funny. just have to get up to get it. call up my gsr taxi. giving gas money sucksjust as long as you get it done.
The EK1 has the alternator on the front, and the belt goes around the alternator and winds around back around the water pump. It is a V belt but does have teeth. My alternator belt seems like it's too big too on my EK1, as I put it on and I have to have the alternator adjusted all the way out. I just did mine yesterday...
nm this whole stupid question thing. im sorry about the noob questions, got it done. autozone gave me the wrong belt. i went to check there in person and the guy wasnt that helpful, so i asked another guy about the differences. well the guy seen me asking another and we argued a bit. blah blah. i hate being forced to deal with those chumps. well its done.
Yeah screw AutoZone. It's the closest auto parts store to me, but I quit going in because I went through two alternators and I'm on my third (maybe fourth) broken distributor from them, and they can NEVER order my fucking new distributor and get it in. Garbage!
