Hi there I am not sure if there if a chat already started on this topic.
But I have what appears to be a 1991 1275cc Japanese made mini with a AC unit that is carbureted.. I need to replace my Belts for the a.c. Alternator and I am trying to figure out which product to use.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers Kevin

..or speak with David as mentioned in the other link. I got an A/C blower assembly from him a while back.

Maybe look at the Gates catalogue if  nothing comes up on the mini specialist parts websites?

 

Belts are of a standard length in any car - so if you can workout what the belt size is it's easy to just get another one from an automotive supplier.  

 

Part numbers are normally something like xxxyyy ...where the xxx = the belt type / shape and the yyy = length in MM.

I had the same problem with my 16V conversion, as moving the alternator shorted the belt ... I just measured the length and crossed referenced.  You might even find it's used on another common fitment ..makes it even easier to order.
