Hey all, I worked on my inlaws 05 ford mustang, I changed the water pump and everything looks the same, compared the old to the new, bolted up fine but when I try to reuse the belt I originally took off, thiers an amazing amount of slack.....should I just get a new belt?

Make sure your looking at the belt diagram correctly. If the water pump was installed correctly then it should not affect the belt at all.

I followed everything correctly, is their a diagram on here that shows the correct placement. Here in az, stickers like that seem to I guess melt or dry off

It the belt was tight before, you probably don't have it routed properly.
