Has it occurred to *no one* to ask what car this is on?

Gawd, I go away for a week and you all turn stupid ...

Plowman, Strickland, you both know better. I'm ashamed of you.

E36 1998 narrows the choice somewhat.

Somewhat, but not enough. C'mon, crack down on this sloppiness. You

Could be a threading issue which I never use. Too many do a 'reply to' and
then change the subject which screws things up. But then I'm an old fart.

The only thing I don't know, and it really doesn't matter, is which motor
we're talking about. Having said that, I assumed the M52 because I see no
point in driving a BMW with a 4-banger.

Beyond that, the rest of the car is known to be a 3 Series built for the
1998 model year. Whether it's a coupe, sedan, or convertible doesn't matter.

I install belts so that the back of the belt rides on smooth pullies and the
inside of the belt rides on ribbed pullies. That works far more often than
it doesn't work.

it is a 6 cyl 328 btw
