Belt Routing

OK, I know second thread similar subject but I want to make sure this one gets answered....

I had, and for the life of me can't find the belt routing diagram...

Some time ago (year?) someone went through the belt replacement ordeal (DIY) and posted the diagram. I did order the tool but lost the data....

Unfortunately the search function here is not optimal...

Thanks.

Glad to help. The V-belt sleeve was the only thing close to a diagram. Since we have the same 38A, if you undertake the DIY any pictures / tips would be appreciated.

Well, I'm going to be under there in the next few days with my grease gun... I will most certainly try to take pictures and make a diagram. It's on there in one piece, best "evidence" I have. I did order the tool mentioned in that thread and have it in my basement....

I'm also working up a blog entry on cleaning the CAC.

Interesting to know what can be seen if you open the BR floor. Personally not sure I would undertake changing the belt but I have a spare belt and Harbor Freight is close so I just might buy the tool "just in case." You can never have enough tools. I'll keep an eye out for your report.

As far as what you can, and more importantly can NOT see... the first part of the blog entry is done...

OK, the blog writeup on the belt is done, for now. Still trying to work out what size belt will fit without the AC compressor in the loop.... When I find out I will share.....
