I will probably need a place to take my car. Last night the water pump belt broke and Im thinking it took the alternator with it. Just in case it did, anyone have a good place to take my car? Im on Barger road near beltline if that helps.

Thank you and yell at me if you want more info.

No it didnt. I just dont want to have to tow it up to portland if I can avoid it. I dont think Ill need a rotary mechanic, just a good machanic in case I need a alternator replaced or something.

Thank you very much Jeff. I got it handled though. I still cant find a belt that freaking fits though. If you would like to come over and help out, that would be great because I would like to meet you, but if your busy or otherwise, I understand. I should have it up and running assuming I get a belt that fits.

Thank you all for your help

are you kidding?
your in corvalis, GO to JiJoes and ask them for both the alt belt and air pump belt
or if you have the twim alt pully two alt belts. if so look at both and make sure they are damn near the same size. then put both on at the same time, pull your alt away to tension
the belts and tighten the top alt nut, then the other nut. DONE> follow similar steps if you still have your airpump. you can do it yourself.

Come to think of it, is that my old car. if so PM me and let me know how it is. Lates Matt
damn you shodl have given me a call lol. Lates Matt
