I'm wondering if anyone knows what domestic brand of auto would have a fan belt to fit my 1984 Honda ACTY. I hate the thoughts of going in and trying to size one up through the multitude of sizes:frustration:
Take your bad belt in to your nearby Canadian Auto (or NAPA type store) and have them cross it. They have a sizer and can hit it real close. My Mitsu was using an oversized belt that was a metric 300 and the alternator was at the max for adjustment. I ended up with a slightly smaller belt but with the same 9mm wide top, 5mm lower width that worked just fine. It also moved my alternator back in the acceptable range for the tension adjustment. I can post the number but I don't know if it would cross over to your rig.
Fan belt part #'s I am presuming that it is a normal v-belt and not a serpentine belt Belt needs to 9.5 mm or 10 mm across top x 875 mm long There is a lot of vehicles that use this size 9.5 [10] mm x 875 mm, very common size Possible part #'s: 9.5mm size: 9.5X875La, 10mm size: 10A0875, 10A0875C, 6215ESC, 6215MC, The 10 mm will sit up a little higher in the pulley but should be ok If all else fails this might work ok: GATES Part # 7345 {High Capacity V-Belt (Standard) HC41 3/8" x 35 1/8"} this might be a tad long ? as 35 1/8" = 892 mm
Great to see those numbers! I looked at what my truck "had" which was a bit too long...Bando RAF K300. Swapped it with a new Gates 3L290W (9mm X 735mm). Rides a bit lower in the pulleys but now offers the necessary adjustment room. Now when anyone "searchs" for fan belt stuff this will come up!
Great advice Just another reason why I love this forum Not a lot of B.S and always get good adice from fellow enthusiasts. Know anything about gas cables? Mine has stuck open 2x now. I took the linkage apart at the pedal and it moves smoothly, no kinks or breaks. I'm a little timid to take the carb cover apart, it's a confidence thing, I work with special needs kids not mechanical, so it'a all new to me. I'll grab the bull by the horns when I get my "cajons" up just afraid of making things worse. I did have the opportunity to drive my ride in the snow before my current problem and in a word it works AWESOME
I would think there should be a return spring on the other end by the carb, most times the cable wraps around a "quadrant" [quarter of a circle] and has a return spring for return. Should be on the butterfly shaft right on the carb. Still waiting for snow to go play op:
Update folks...my 3L290W (9mm X 735mm) fan belt did not make the long term level of longevity. Turns out it should be 4L300W (12.5 X 760mm) which fits a lot better. Higher in the pully like it should. The 3L290W (9mm X 735mm) size is just too thin at 9mm and wears/stretches like crazy. The old original belt had started out as a 4L but over time was ground down so it looked like a really stretched out 9mm wide belt which it wasn't!
Would anyone have a part # for the fan belt on a '93 Hijet Jumbo w/ac? I have the ac belt, but the fan/alt. belt is gone. Thanks for your help.
The Gates 4L300W (12.5 X 760mm) crosses to a CarQuest RBR 6830. On my 1993 Mits U42T the belt was kinda tight, but after it was on there was a bit of tightening room left. The original belt was MD 813653, marked Mitsubishi. Thanks TetsuKuma! Bill
