What’s in the Box

  • 1 x Alternator Belt (replaces 128170-77350)

Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the battery or main power switch for safety.
  2. Loosen the alternator's pivot and tensioning bolts.
  3. Push the alternator towards the engine to create slack and remove the old belt.
  4. Inspect pulleys for wear or damage before installing the new belt.
  5. Place the new belt over the pulleys, ensuring it is correctly seated in the V-grooves.
  6. Pry the alternator away from the engine to tension the belt. Proper tension is typically a 1 cm (½") deflection under moderate thumb pressure at the longest span.
  7. Tighten the tensioning and pivot bolts securely.
  8. Reconnect power and start the engine to check for proper operation.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know which belt size I need for my Yanmar 1GM10?

The Yanmar 1GM10 used two different belt sizes during its production run. Early models typically use a 737mm belt (our part 128170-77350), while later models or those with a larger alternator pulley use a longer 788-790mm belt. The most reliable method is to measure your old belt or check its part number before ordering.

What are the signs of a failing alternator belt?

Common symptoms include a loud squealing sound from the engine, visible cracks or fraying on the belt, a battery that won’t stay charged, or an overheating engine if the belt also drives the water pump.

How often should I replace the alternator belt?

Most marine engine manufacturers recommend inspecting the belt annually and replacing it every 2-4 years or every 500-1000 hours, depending on operating conditions. Consult your engine's service manual for specific intervals.

Can I install this belt myself?

Yes, replacing an alternator belt is a common maintenance task for boat owners with basic mechanical skills. The process involves loosening the alternator, swapping the belt, and re-tensioning it. However, if you are unsure, professional installation is recommended.

Will this belt fit a Yanmar 1GML or 1GM10C?

This belt is listed as compatible with the 1GM10C (Saildrive version). However, data for the 1GML is incomplete. We strongly recommend verifying the part number or dimensions from your existing belt before ordering for these models.

OEM vs. Aftermarket?

This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
