Belt tension specs
I am at work right now and bored so I thought I would post. Can anyone tell me the belt tension specs for the A/C belt and power steering belts? I just finished replacing the water pump and belts and now my 951 screeches like a banshee.
Thanks

AC and power steering belts are very tight - almost like guitar strings
Your AC belt is probably too loose - go snug it up a bit more AFJuvat

If memory serves the deflection in the middle with moderate thumb-pressure should be 5mm.

Dark Skies is correct 5mm on the Balance belt. The AC/PS is 9.5+1 rotation. Sman
