>2. Serpentine Belt

This belt is the accessory belt on a 3.2 ATX equipped engine.  There are two belts
on MTX cars, one for the a/c-alternator, and one for the water pump-P/S pump.

One car won't have accessory belts AND a serpentine belt.

For a MTX car, with the two accessory belts, they shouldn't cost more than $30-40
for both.

If they are new, they shouldn't be brown or cracked...cracks are the most common
sign of an old belt.

No V belts on SHOs (or any Taurus, for that matter).  They went out with
carburetors.
