Hi guys, I have a problem… I was in the process of replacing my powersteering drive belt, I got it off but I can’t fit a new one on. I’m pretty sure the powersteering pump has been pivoted as far as it can go. Is there some order to putting them on that makes it easier? Or is there some trick? I’ve tried putting the belt on last on the p/s pulley then the waterpump/fan pulley but I have not been successful. Putting it on last on the crank pulley seems hard so I’m going to try tomorrow, I need to sleep, but I don’t think it will work as every pulley seems to need an extra inch of belt to fit the belt on. My cars a 240sx s14. Please help and thanks in advance.
if you have adjusted the ps pump as much as u can its a possibility you have the wrong belt
Just take your old belt in, they’ll measure it on the fancy little belt measuring device they have, and give you the right sized belt. Don’t rely on their computer to give you the right belt, as they’re usually wrong.
Had to do this with my SR PS belt and had no issues. Fit fine.
