Mercury E6AZ-8620-A V-Belt

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if E6AZ-8620-A fits your vehicle.

The tension of drivebelts in earlier models is checked by pushing on the belt at a distance halfway between the pulleys.

The tension of the belt is checked visually. Locate the belt tensioner at the front of the engine on the right (passenger) side, adjacent to the lower crankshaft pulley, then find the tensioner operating marks. If the indicator mark is outside the operating range, the belt should be replaced.

The number of drivebelts used depends on the accessories installed in the vehicle.

Drive belts play an important role in the overall operation of the vehicle and its components.

The different types of drive belts used include V-belts, V-ribbed belts, and serpentine belts, depending on the engine and accessories.

With the engine off, open the hood and use your fingers (and a flashlight if necessary) to check for cracks, separation of the belt plies, fraying, and glazing, which gives the belt a shiny appearance. Both sides of the belt should be inspected, which means you will have to twist the belt to check the underside. The ribs on the underside of the belt should all be the same depth, with none of the surface uneven.
