Russ, a little tough to do when the oil is drained out :) Seriously though, my belt was so tight that I doubt turning the engine over would have popped the belt off.


Slip the belt on int he direction the engine turns as far as you can. Then just turn the engine over, walla, it slips right on.

Ok, it took a couple trips to NAPA, but here is a belt that doesn't require you to remove the compressor or cut the belt to get the damn thing off!
NAPA Premium XL belt (Gates) 9319-size is 12.5/13mm x 820mm
