I can't get the new belt on for the life of me.

Removed old belt 4++ years old... shiny on the flat side. Went to install the new belt and it is missing the final pulley... next to the tensioner pulley. Tried for an hour.

Then decided to 'stretch' the belt by hanging from it a full 5 gallin bucket o' water... overnight... didn't move at all. Tried again yesterday morning. Zero.

I'll visit a mechanic this week and pay to have it installed unless anyone knows of a trick/tip.

Giles, I wish you sucess in your endeavor.
