Thats a slit in a brand new belt i didn't see

Those are shots of my alternator bolts that arn't there anymore..

[justinschmidt1]

wow...whys that happening?

 

[Willis_98GT]

dude i don't know.. like i was driving yesterday and lately i've been noticing my belt slipping a little bit so i knew it was going to snap and it did yesterday so i got a new one put it on ok and now this...

and i have to go to the dealership and get 2 new alternator bolts for the bottom. one for the pi alternator bracket and one for the crank.. man.. what a day

no way sir.. i'll stay 2v but my next car will most likely be a 4v. i'm not sayin i don't like cobras. but this is the only bab around and i love this car. and the more i work on it the more i learn. and become confident to swap heads :afro:

damn that would suck

 

[Goldmember]

Wow that blows... Since it's the second one I'm wondering if it isn't something internal (vibration) causing that thing to rattle itself apart

 

[Willis_98GT]

i'm not really sure.. it never did vibrate or anything before.

i went to the ford dealership today to get 2 alternator bolts and a crank pulley bolt and they were 5 mins past close and wouldn't help me... pieces of shit.

nother question.. if i put the car in 5th gear and the ebrake up the crank is locked correct? and how many lbs should the crank bolt be torqued?
