Can anybody put a fan belt on for me?

Post by skellyjohn » Fri Aug 15, 2008 10:31 pm

I'm assuming that this isn't a BIG job but I know NOTHING about cars. The battery light came on earlier and 30 miles later the dash lit up like a Christmas tree and then conked out.

The AA guy didn't check anything. He just boosted the battery and followed me home. When I got home, Ali told me where to look and it would appear that the screeching noise I heard a couple of days ago was the fan belt slipping off.

So if there's anybody cutting about Linlithgow that would like a beer voucher could you give me a call after 12pm on Sat 07834158118 Ta
