Interesting info. Does anyone know the correct belt tension
for the Yanmar on an F32?
I recall from my past experience with other motors that the
depression should be about ½”+

Belts
can also slip become they become glazed. Just had a $53 belt replaced on my
car for that reason. Looked fine, tension fine, but the underside, the part
that contacts the pulleys, was slick.

Basic rule is if you can twist the belt more than 90 degrees its too loose, twist less than 90 too tight.From: “ron barr” <rwhb@…>Date: Sat, 9 Aug 2008 13:48:21 -0400To: <FreedomOwnersGroup@yahoogroups.com>Subject: [FreedomOwnersGroup] slipping V-belts Interesting info.
