Hi everyone this is my first post. I have owned a early 85 944 for about 6 months. I am sure that it needs a t belt and b belt replacement. I am interested in renting the proper tension tool if it is possible. If not I will have a shop do the work since I don't want to spend 500 bucks on a tool.

Please let me know where to go!

You can do it w/o the tool, tighten them until the belt whines, then back off slowly until it doesn't anymore. THEN AFTER 2500 miles RETENSION THE SON'BITCh... =)

Pelican Parts rents the tool. <a href="http://www.pelicanparts.com" target="_blank">www.pelicanparts.com</a>

Try Vertex - I know they rent the tool - will cost about $50, or $75 for the flywheel lock, tool, and calibration tool. Might be more efficient to just have a shop do the final tension after you put the belts on.

Renntag

best bet...if you dont trust your self...rent the tools from <a href="http://www.Vertex.com" target="_blank">www.Vertex.com</a> and then tension the belt on your own, then check it with the tool. this way, next time you do it you know.

Just a suggestion.

How about the <a href="http://members.rennlist.com/9201toolclub/" target="_blank">9201 tool club</a> if it is still up and operational....Never tried it as I have my own 9201

By the way...I couldn't recommend Craig's instructions...too risky

IIRC the 9201 tool club is back in operation (E-mail list).
best is to contact Jay Cohen direct: jayc@rennlist.com &lt;jayc@rennlist.com&gt;

Take care

Zim's also rents the tool. Don't know what the rental fee is though.
