Q: What are the drive belts and why are they important for the proper functioning of a Oldsmobile Cutlass?
A: Drive belts, or V-belts, at the engine front are vital for car functioning. They can fail over time and need regular inspection and adjustment to prevent engine damage. The number of belts depends on installed accessories like the generator alternator, A.I.R. smog pump, power steering pump, water pump, fan, and air conditioning compressor. To inspect, check for cracks, separation, fraying, and glazing with the engine off. Both sides should be examined, requiring belt twisting. Belt tension can be checked by pushing on it halfway between the pulleys. If adjustment is needed, the belt-driven accessory can be moved on its bracket by loosening the strap and pivot bolts, adjusting the component, and then tightening the bolts. A pry bar may be needed for adjustment, but avoid damaging the component.
