Procharged w/ broken serpentine belt?
I'm new to the Mustangforums, and I've got a question about the serpentine belt in a1996 mustang GT with procharge...
The car waspurchased about 3-4 months ago from a dealership. We had a local high performance shop examine the car, and they said it was in good condition. Sadly we're finding out that was not the case. One of the problems that forced us to park itwas whenthe serpentine belt broke.Therewas not any warning signs that i noticed before the incident. We checked with the local shops, but none of them havegiven us a straight answer as to what size is needed to replaceit. I'm running out of ideas on where to turn. If I am missing any critical information about the car, please ask, and i will do what i can to find the information.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, wanting to get this beautiful car back up and running soon.

If you have a procharger in the car and need to know which size belt to run, just call the tech guys at Procharger. They're the ones that send you the kit, which includes the belt. So if you tell them what you have for a car and what Procharger you have (and pulley size) then they can give you the exact belt size.)

yeah... as far as i can tellthe rest of thecar isfine, but to be safe,I will be getting it checked afterwards to make sure.
After calling Procharger, and a few shops later, the belt has beenordered.I'm picking it up tomorrow (hopefully).
To everyone who responded, however easy the question may have been, thank you very much. Ikinda live in an area where no one has a clue about cars. >.<
