Broke one of the 2 belts for my alternator today. Any guesses how long the other will last?
I might put another on there cause it's all squeaky now. But I might not cause I'm super lazy.
1wk? 1mo? 6mo?

Rusted out beat down 300d turbo 82' -- RIP
Nice body, tons of ridiculous mechanical issues - 300d turbo 82' /motor 85'

There are 2 on there so that you have a backup when the first one dies. I'd just grab another one, and put it on. Don't want to risk overheating.

larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?

If the fan/water pump belt lets loose the coolant will stop circulating, and it will overheat even if you're on the highway
