So I went to advanced to order the belt and it was under idle/waterpump belt? Does the secondary belt really have something to do with the idle? Because I still have idle problems that are unresolved and if the belt does have something to do with the idle(not sure how it would) it will be interesting to see the effects once I put it on. 1998 SE Duratec V6 ATX Ebay intake with K&N Filter Trubendz Exhaust Custom Hood
