Can i introduce you my family and a lot of people here? My father is 70 and never snapped belts... I think we are lucky, then.

Incorrect main tenance and incorrect tension are not belt flaw related , they are a problem when someone think to be a mechanic and/or to have tech skills about cars .

Converting to one belt is anyway a good idea if you realize that you will never learn to tension correctly the existing 4 belts.
