How to diy ac belt

[Kiteless]

I think this is done and gone, but I just wanted to say that I recently did this to my Egg. She has about 90K on her and needed a new belt. The bottom bolt is on there REEEEALLY good. I had to use a socket wrench and put a tube on the end to extend the fulcrum and had to make sure the socket I was using was the exact right size.

heat, time, patients and penetrating oil is your friend lol. im sure you already knew that. But I cant stress enough. Soak those stuborn bolts with penetrating oil. Heat is always good, Taps with a hammer. And time. Always time. Soak them go eat a sandwich. Come back and soak again. hell soak 3 times a day for a week. That bolt didnt become stuck overnight so its not giving up the battle in a minute. Also try different kinds of penetrating oils. I find that some work better in one case and others work better in another. Also get some Kroil or aerokroil it will make pb look like water.

Best Luck.
