Re: [T3] New to list too...sort of...


Aha....so this is probably pretty easy to do then....except for the puller - 
where would I find one?  I replaced the belt about a year ago - and then had 
a "VW" shop adjust it as needed - but you know how that goes.  Maybe it is 
too tight.  How do I know what adjustment is good?
-I'm in Nashville, TN...for the moment...looking to move back to the brighter 
side of the Western states in the next year or so.
