I finally got around to fixing my loose water pump pulley and installing 
a new fan belt. I ordered a 'cogged' belt from Moss--part# 
021-966--thinking it might work better than the original slab of rubber. 
I noticed before installing that it was narrower than the original type 
that I'd had, which had rotted, but it looked like it would work. Once I 
started tensioning it however, it was clear it /might /work, but sat too 
low in the pulleys, and was essentially riding on the bottom of the 
pulley grooves instead of on the sides (and the angle of the sides of 
the belt was incorrect). Anyone else tried one of these?

I'm shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YA', that a vendor would sell something that 
could possibly work, but isn't truly correct.
