That sounds about right. Also, not as simple as just stringing it up and measuring. Zetecs have a touchy tensioner angle and the stringing up process must take up the issue of estimating where the tensioner arm will end up in space while allowing for full belt wear as belt stretches in use. If measured with tensioner at full relief with no belt on it you are already too long.
I second the words that we here are very soon going to eat the end result of all jobs going overseas. We haven't seen the end of this mess yet. There's whole other shoes just waiting to hit the floor. I don't think the American consumer had so much to do with it as the people who run the show do. After all, the loudest preachers that we must stay patriotic are the first ones to sell their companies to overseas interests or go there themselves. It's all about money as it always was, race issues, immigration issues, crime, patriotism, and all other things are a coverup to the real problem which is worldwide class warfare. Notice whenever that subject is brought up how quickly the subject changes. Nobody on EITHER side will discuss it (why would they, they're RICH!). Notice how immigration pops up as the reason for jobs disappearing, yeah, right. Nope, it's more about immigrants soaking up hospital , education and other funding that the rich cannot then get back in tax cuts. Same with the welfare situation. We are being milked like cows. Notice how 1929 depression could not happen until banks allowed to get into stock market, sound familiar? The rich quite frankly let the middle class get too big by letting them share in the wealth, that's all gotta stop now, it threatens the livelihood of their offspring. I especially love the moniker of conservative applied to one of those classes, it's conserve alright, as in conserve (lower immigration, welfare, smaller government, etc.) so I CAN GET IT. Preferably in my permanent tax cuts. The classic textbook cause of a depression is CONCENTRATION OF WEALTH amongst a few. Listen to the last Morgan Chase stock holders meeting where the guy stood up and announced to stockholders they just had the best year they have ever had. That after taking all the bailout money and holding onto that so could invest in stock market speculation instead of redoing the home loans it was provided for. Figures now show that world oil use DROPPED while barrel price went to $140, how?!, bank speculation, that's how. Same thing going on right this second, banks now exert control over 60% of gross domestic product, higher than ever before. Meaning they don't get it, moreso, if that is the reward, why not do it again? How about the CEO of Fiat announcing to Chrysler union that they must get used 'to a new era of poverty', I'm sure that one went over real well. To them this country already pretty much written off, to stay on top they must and are already looking at plans to be selling global enough to make up for the shortfall in wages to purchase most product that used to be produced here. Look how GM just sold more cars in China than here, wake up! If not, the slow guys will be devoured by the quick thinkers, the rich always feed on their own if nothing else to eat. This country is screwed and there is absolutely NOTHING that anyone can do about it now except try to figure out how to adjust your life expectations downward with as little damage as possible to oneself. I really wonder what's gonna happen once it gets obvious that the 2 breadwinner (man/wife) plan cannot work anymore because both together do not make enough to make ends meet. Gonna be some serious lifechanges there..............
