Installation Notes

  1. Ensure the engine is off and cool, and disconnect the battery terminals for safety.
  2. Locate the v-belt routing diagram, usually found on a decal in the engine bay or in your service manual.
  3. Identify the belt tensioner pulley. Using the appropriate tool, release the tension on the belt.
  4. Carefully slide the old belt off the pulleys. Note its path if you do not have a diagram.
  5. Route the new belt onto the pulleys following the correct path. Ensure it is properly seated in all grooves.
  6. Re-apply tension to the belt using the tensioner. Check for proper tension (typically about half an inch of flex).
  7. Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and listen for abnormal noises. Visually confirm the belt is tracking correctly.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I find the right V-belt for my marine engine?

Always start by consulting your engine's service manual for the correct OEM part number. You can then use our Part Number Matrix to see if this belt is a listed cross-reference. Also, confirm your engine model and year are included in the compatibility tables above.

What are the signs of a worn or failing V-belt?

Common symptoms include a loud squealing or chirping sound from the engine, visible cracks, glazing (shiny spots), or fraying on the belt's surface. You may also notice decreased performance from accessories like the alternator or power steering pump.

How often should I replace my engine's V-belt?

There is no single interval that fits all engines and conditions. A good rule of thumb is to inspect belts annually for wear and plan for replacement every 3-5 years or as recommended in your owner's manual. Harsh marine environments can accelerate wear.

Is this belt used for the alternator, power steering, or water pump?

This v-belt is primarily listed as a power steering belt for many of the compatible models. However, its exact function can vary. Always refer to a belt routing diagram for your specific engine to confirm its application.

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.

Shipping speed & cost?

We ship worldwide quickly—typical transit 5–15 days. Standard shipping is free; expedited options appear at checkout where available.

Warranty & returns?

Covered by a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use. If issues arise, contact support with your order details. Returns are accepted within our standard window (unused & in original condition). See our policy page or reach out for instructions.

Safety & Important Info
