Im not sure off hand what we have on our westy, that has a type 4 but its 20 miles away, Im home in our other bus which has a type 1 motor. I would say that if you have the right amount of free tension when fitted, it'll be fine!
Cheers @MorkC68 I'll try again with a smaller belt, I'm sure I'll get it sorted. @Terrordales i was definitely getting some negative waves at 3am on the M1 waiting for the RAC to turn up
@Flakey now there's a thought. @Terrordales i think some oddball style headgear is in order for when I venture out in the van
@Flakey cheers, I appreciate it. I've just been looking through the engine bay thread and I think you're right. The pulleys on the type 4 engines look to cover more of the alternator than mine does. Good spot. The learning continues!
Thanks very much @Flakey The pulley on mine is 80mm, I've put another 913mm belt on and been out for a little spin tonight. Fingers crossed that will do the job for now. Now if some can tell me where 1st and 2nd are I'll be even happier @paradox Are you in the north as well?
@paradox I broke down not far from there on my way back from picking up my van @Clink funny you should say that but it was named "the general" by the family. I think I'll make the subtle change to Herr, much more appropriate
