Remember that belt doesn't just drive the alternator ............ drives the fan to cool the motor

There is supposed to be a fan belt and the tools to change it in the tool kit that comes with every 911 and 930... It's an easy DIY job that takes 5 minutes.

...if you know how to do it. A bit limited room on a 930, compared to na cars and the a/c belt is in the way too. Moving the compressor requires tools too, so lacking tools, I would just cut the a/c belt in a pinch.
