Quick summary: I need to know the stock SVO belt size w/o AC
Dad is mad at me for this, and I'm mad at myself for it too...replaced the belts on the serpentine (Forget what size I put on). Swear I did it right!!! Well...I'm driving to school (70 miles) I get about 45 miles and the car just starts running like absolute junk!!! I'm heel toeing, and clutching the heck out of it just so I never have to let the RPM's drop bellow 500. I get to the school and park it...not exactly how I wanted to cuz the car just died in a spot. I leave it in that spot overnight cuz I turned the key and hear a click click click and it just doesn't start...The next day I decide I have to move it because I got a $30 ticket from campus WOO! Well I jump start it with one of those rechargable things...I look down and there's only one belt, to add onto that, the one belt still on there is flopping so much it looks like it's going to fly off and hit me in the face! Well I moved it into the parking structure so I didn't get more tickets and now I'm in need of the correct belt size so I don't have this issue again! I pulled the alternator up tight in it's bracket when I put the belts on, but apparently it didn't work...I just want to know what the correct size is and I'll get a hand to get the alternator pried up high tomorrow when I (hopefully) redo this! A quick response is nice I need this car on thursday!!!!
Thanks
