Bought a 73" belt for my 86 GT as I have done with my 93 motor I had in my old car, and my friends both run a 73" belt as well in their 88 and 91 with no A/C or smog pump
Unfortunately the tensioner comes down too much and the top part of the belt rubs the bottom.
I have came across another diagram, and from what I can tell, it will fix my issue. Someone has told me not to use it because it will cause the waterpump to run backwards, but I have played it and visualized it in my head and the waterpump in both diagrams are running counter clockwise.
Can anyone spot an issue using the 2nd diagram below? Alternator, Crank and PS pump both turn clockwise, Water pump turns counterclockwise.
