Crow eating time!

B 52 is the correct belt. It was actually a B 53 I had tried on my carrier initially, and ran out of adjustment.

I have this pair that came with my Falklands spares, made by Goodyear Ohio. Can anyone confirm? Ron

Default Fan belts:

thought I'd change the carrier belts at the show as part of the "entertainment". Much grunting, sweating (OH MY GOD! the sweating), and with much help from Gord Yeo, got them on.

The B-51's that is

Jacked them up as far as humanly possible, returned the newly tweeked distributer, and find my self without the 1/2 inch that it would take to install the dist with the field coil.

(And about two pounds - I did mention the sweat, right?)

An hour to go, return the old squeally belts to service, replace the dist., and we're off to the races.

Moral of the story ?

B 52 belts.

Fan lines up with the shroud better as well.

Default Charlie

Now that you've been through that, the rest of us shouldn't have to (unless we're real dumb) Thanks for the heads up.
