I'm going to trash my A/C pump very soon, since all the rest of the A/C components are gone long time ago.

So as the title says, what size belt I will need?
Where can I get one, do locals carry that size?



Any input is highly appreciated.

 

WOW!! 1,081 posts and still don't know how to use the search function( just playin)....So to save you the trouble of typing it again and searching, here it is.K060365 Gates Micro V belt. NAPA or any of the others will have an equivilent.

 

If you dont run the a/c compressor, you will have to get rid of the power steering too, which you should do anyhow. That way you just eliminate the entire belt all togeather!

 

I hope you are joking about "having"to remove the P/S as well.. Because that is complete crap if you are serious. I do NOT have either( and recommend removing the p/s as well) for the sake of saving argument. But just to clarify the forum mistruths before they get too far spun.

That belt # is with stock main and p/s pulleyAnd tensioner of course

I live in freaking manhattan, you know hard would be to park a car with wide tires like the FD without PS, I was thinking of doing it though.

 

Hey John Wassup?! I'm stuck up here in the snow and can't even see my car

No problem. I was just playin. Couldn't resist sounding like one of the old time grumpy guys. SEARCH!!haha! I think they have a seperate key they say it soo much

 

Hey BIS, still waiting for the AST removal photos, and you've got time for this?

 

 

Check your email. I sent them last night .. Do i have permission to keep playing?!!haha! Sorry about the delay. I am getting ready for a move to the mainland. Or civilization as i call it.

 

nothin yet and welcome back

 

Nothing much, trying to hide away from the snow even thugh I have no choice realy, but thank God for the AWD.
How have you been?

I have one from when I eliminated my A/C but kept P/S... Now I ditched P/S so I dont need it anymore lol.

The belt maybe has 100 miles on it if that. Will ship it for 8$

Let me know,
Mitch

 

You don't HAVE to remove the P/S. I just said I would. Now considering you live in the city, that may be a bit rough........lol..........But it does clean up the engine bay quite a bit without it.

 

PM sent, thanks for the offer...







I know what you ment even the first time, as much as I'd love to dich that bastard same as the air pump and the a/c compressor and clean up the engine bay some more, it would be very hard to park around here, even though I park in a garage I need to make full circles inside sometimes to make it in my spot when the garage is packed, gets tuff even with PS never mind without it. lol...

 

just use a string to run the path of the belt and then measure it to see how many inches it is to complete the loop. I belive its 35 if I can remember right, I still have p/s with no a/c and everything is fine.

 

the belt size is 6PK-920 if it wasnt mentioned already. Thats straight from Mazdas parts book, I have the same belt in my FD.

 

Thanks guys, I apreciate all the help...
