I broke the Fan/alt belt today - what are you using on your car?
Well I've been driving the car more and more since getting it on the road.
Today after recently installing an upgraded radiator I went out for a cruise and got on it a few times. Great fun!
The last run of the day I was heading back home I opened it up again and then exited and got to the light half mile from the house. I saw my temp gauge jump from 190 to 210 then 230. The light turned green and I limped home. By the time I got there I was at 260 and puking a bit of coolant. I stop the car popped the hood and damned if I didn't see the alternator belt wrapped around the fan and the power steering belt flipped over.
I got the shop fan going and started to bring the temp down on the car. After a bit I was able to unravel the belt from the fan and realized it was broken not rolled.
It was a new belt from Advanced Auto maybe 150 miles on it.
Which brand and model are you using on your ride? This one needs to be between 48 and 49 inches.
