Davewillb Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Can anyone help me with the part number please for a serpentine belt to fit an EFI V8 from a 1996 V8 - I need to remove the air con pump and so need the shorter belt to replace the existing - my local specialist has tried to find it for me and but failed. The existing belt is about an 1" wide. Apologies if I've posted in the wrong place or something - newbie Thanks - Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreeSheds Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Just looking at mine I think that if you remove the aircon pump you might need to fit a different tensioner or something? But why not just leave the pump in place? The pump's electric clutch means that it doesn't do anything and then you still have the option of on-board air at a later date...

Off Road Toad Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Have a looksie here: http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=49683&st=0&p=451984&hl=belt&fromsearch=1entry451984 (Sorry SteveĀ ) Wondered how long that would take That number definately works on my 4.6 which is a 1996 engine. I had no choice but to remove the air con unit as the bracket it mounts on won't fit in the defender engine bay. i had to cut it off, thus no way of leaving the pulley in place!

Davewillb Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 Thanks all, I've got one on order so fingers crossed because the image on the dealers part system showed a non serpentine belt but its infamous for being wrong the parts guy says. There are two holes for the locating peg on the tensioner and I think one position allows the non aircon path for the belt - I'll find out soon. Fair point on retaining the pump but the engine is going in a Defender and I'm trying to de-clutter and simplify things as much as poss. Thanks everyone.
