Hi Folks,

I just noticed that the fan belt is worn out and about to go.  (man, I could 
have sworn I only put that on last year)
Anyways, I dig out a new one that I had got from Victoria British a while back. 
 But guess what - its too freaking small.
Its part number 2-419 and it is a Quinton Hazel QBA1100.
According to the QH online catalog, a 1500 Midget should take a QBA 1088 
alternator belt.

Has anybody ran into this - before I go bitchin to VB.

The old one is a Gates 7440 (I'll check tomorrow if Advance Auto has one) and I 
had no trouble putting it back on so its not like I'm mixing up the pulleys or 
anything.  Doing a side to side comparison, the VB belt is noticeably smaller.

Regards,  Adrian
