Question belt troubles
the otherday my belt decided to fall apart 40 miles away from home 1 of the 5 rows fell off complety it was smacking the fan blades as it went. while i was driving home i noticed a few times my rmps went up by about 100 more then it usualy is could a frayed belt cause that? it went up a few times but it wold go back down to normal.

I don't remember, I don't see why it would.

That's my emergency belt.

Oh yeah you just worked on it. Must have messed it up.

If you had the battery disconnected then it might run a little weird for a little bit while the computer relearns.
