Hey y'all. I've got a gnarly squeal on startup then it goes away after a few seconds. Probably time to replace the belt and maybe tensioner, pulley. Current belt is Gates micro-v at k060705.
1996 2,.3L 4cyl with power steering and NO A/C
When I looked it up Gates and Autozone say it 70.57" and OReilly say 71 1/16" and both say it doesn't fit my vehicle? I've been running with it for a long time.
Correct belt with my setup is supposed to be 70". Why would the slightly too big belt have worked?
