Please help us get this banner moving. It has made it from Alaska, to Reno, Nevada.

We've took the last banner from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, we should be able to get this one from it's current location to Key West Florida.

Please don't let it get stuck!! Get involved and check out the discussion HERE.

I've been meaning to ask about this for a while. On my '94 2.3, it is nearly impossible to replace the serpentine belt without removing the tensioner completely. The issue isn't belt tension, but the gap between the base of the tensioner (not the pulley itself) and the main pulley. You can't slide the belt in and out between the two. The only solution I've found so far is unbolting the tensioner, sliding the new belt in, then mounting the tensioner back up. Has anybody else run into this? __________________ 99 Kawasaki Vulcan 500 1992 F-150 4wd, 5.0/C6
