Power steering belt question:

[Louis-Alain RICHARD]

Just for the sake of knowledge:

13x992 means 13 mm wide by 992 mm long, 12.5x1030 means 12.5 mm (so it is
exactly 1/2 inch) by 1030 mm, etc.

This numbering system is used by many manufacturers; knowing it helps you
find the right belt very fast.

There is also another numbering system (used by Good-Year and others):
17405 means 17/32th wide and 40.5 inches long so this belt is the exact
equivalent as the other metric ones.

With this, you will know what you are buying now...

Hope this helps a little bit,

Louis-Alain,

Allrighty this is getting me a little frustrated.
I have an aby motor with a 7a crank pulley.
It's the same setup as the 7a motor now basically.

I was sent from Blau.. a Conti? 13x992belt
And then I was sent the same thing From Performance motorsport.

For the life of me I can't get it to fit.. it should be a 12.5x995? I
believe, but as I type this I am looking at etka and it also says 12.5x992.
Noted ekta also says 12.5x1030 for the aby motor but I have the crank pulley
from the 7a motor attached now so it shouldn't matter.

I read etka, I check through the bently. At this point I will be going to
the Stealership with an etka print out and make sure I get the right belt...

But has anyone else have issuse with this same problem?

Thanks
Josh
