Re: fan belt emergency

[Bob Fortson <bobt1885@xxxxxxxxx>]

I should have checked the other post first. Just a
note that the proper way to check alighnment is with a
flat edge across all four sides of involved
pulleys...i.e. alternator to water pump to power
steering and all to main crank pulley. one side
doesn't get it right...
