[200q20v] AC belt

[Brian.Link at Level3.com]

Well I figured I new better...I went to Autozone and asked for a AC belt,
then asked if he could find one 1/4 inch longer, he did.  The belt went on
by hand, and I was able to tension it.  The geared tension bolt is actually
centered in the channel.  I'll post the number or at least the dims. if any
one is interested.

I also had a problem with getting the said belts on my car when I did the
timing and other belt change.  I had the grill and various other front end
radiators off, so access wasn't too bad, but it was tough.  Even with that,
I was able to get the belt on there with a screwdriver or the like, and
didn't have to remove any other bolts along the way.  I guess you could say
I feel your pain on that one.

Good luck

I cheat.....I put it on almost all the way then just turn the starter over
to pop it on....once it trashed the belt, all the other times it just threw
it on the pulleys.....
