Subject:Re: URGENT!! Broken alternator pulley

Its a new 2.1 in a mostly 1.9 configuration.

We have a plan in motion now though, and expect to be on the rooad tonight.

One question though:
I found a new belt in my trunk that's a contitech avx13.  Is this the
correct belt for a 1.9?  I don't have any packaging for it.
