[QUOTE="c6zhombre, post: 15765028, member: 76381"] Yes, I've changed the belt once a year since I've owned the car. Usually I change the plugs, oil, fuel filter, and belt all at the same time in December I will certainly let you know what I think of it's sizing and drive performance....I should put some miles on it tomorrow. One thing to keep in mind is the these rpm belts are an aramid tensile [URL='https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dautomotive&field-keywords=cord']cord[/URL] which is the same material used in bulletproof vests. They do not stretch apparently...even after some heat and use. So sizing is trickier. I've read reports of failures from these belts because people tried to go with too small of a size and put the same old massive tension pressure on them like they would with the other belts. I'm going to be conservative with the adjustable tensioner and initially set it softer, and see if it holds 22psi without slip. [/QUOTE]
