The last oil change I had, my mechanic told me that my serpentine belt was showing its wear and needs to be replaced sooner or later.
So I did a little research and found that I can replace it myself w/o much of a problem. But what type of problems/trouble will I have?
Now for the performance. Being that nearly all accessory pullies run on the serpentine belt, why not put a lighter one on there. At zxtuner.com, they have 4 different pullies: Pulley - Altenator Overdrive - ZXtuner; Pulley - Ultra Underdrive - ZXtuner; Pulley - Underdrive - Esslinger; and Pulley - Underdrive - MAC Performance.
Now all of those need shorter belts, which is something I don't want to bother with. Where would I find pullies that fit stock specs? And which one is a good idea to use and which is a bad idea to use?
Thanks for the knowledge! -KJ
