[QUOTE="mike202, post: 511358, member: 17202"] Yea that sounds wrong. Should be the right fan belt for an alternator fitted to a type 1 engine though. You should only be able to turn the fan belt 90 degs with your thumb and fore finger, or alternatively about 10-15mm deflection. I also think(?) that you should usually, still have one or two shims between the two halves of the pulley wheel. So somethings not right, don't be offended but have you mated the two halves of the top pulley wheel together properly? Otherwise to try the 905 smaller belt is all I can think of. [/QUOTE]
