thesingh 0 Posted December 23, 2011 As the title says for a '95 2.0 8v ... Would it be the same set up as a G60? Thanks for any help... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted December 23, 2011 No it's just one short V belt, quite a simple run on an 8v Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted December 23, 2011 nope, there's a serpentine belt for the alt, waterpump and a small v belt that just does the PAS pulley separately, very simple, no separate tensionner etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted December 23, 2011 as long as it's got the standard 70A alternator it should be like my rubbish sketch below, I don't think any got higher output alternators or PAS driven by the same ribbed belt but I guess it's possible on a late ADY engine as the parts ran out :) [ATTACH=CONFIG]50728[/ATTACH] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its just as I though.... I just changed the Alternator belt.. Its not really that hard as it looks... But that Power steering belt is giving me alot of problems.. Its too tight to fit. Has any one got any advice that may help? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted December 23, 2011 ah check the size - euro car parts / GSF are notorious for giving out the wrong size belt! Sometimes the pump needs a bit of persuasion with a soft faced mallet to move too - don't take the pulley off! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted December 23, 2011 make sure you loosen the right bolts to move the PAS pump, you need to slacken the main long pivot bolt the whole pump and bracket assembly swings on as well as a couple of other 13mm bolts to allow the pump to move, sometimes it's best to remove the bottom toothed adjuster bolt altogether to allow enough movement to get the belt off and on. don't overtighten the new belt either, or it will strain the pump shaft and make nasty chattering noises on the pulleys, best leave it a bit slack and do up tighter if it slips Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
