first off, i'm not incapable of putting on a belt. a 10 yr old kid and do this. i just need the part # and/or size.

i have a 1994 civic hatch with a b16a2 swap and a crv PJ7 compressor bracket. which belt am i supposed to use? i know it should be simple, but then again, it might be the auto parts store....

i asked for a belt for a 2000 civic si, and its too small. wont fit.
i go back, ask for an a/c belt for a 1994 del sol VTEC, the exact same part # as the 2000 civic si. so its too short as well. something isnt right here... one of these has to fit, and i'm totally confused on what the hell is going on.


by the way.. here is the part # i was givin for both from advance auto parts... its a dayco belt. part #5040310. anyone happen to know which part # i need? i'd like to get this today/night so i can get my a/c up and running tomorrow morning in class. TIA.

*****PROBLEM FIXED!*****
taken care of, the auto parts store gave me the wrong belt all together. just making sure there wasn't some information i missed with keeping the a/c with a swap. the 2000 civic si belt is what i went with... for some reason it was cheaper than others. now just to figure out why my compressor doesnt cycle... maybe i'm so low on refrigerant, that it wont cycle at all. oh well, i'll find out tomorrow when i hook up a gauge set and see what it reads. i really dont wanna buy a new compressor.

If you used the CRV bracket, youll need a CRV belt as well, the power steering belt for your motor should fit it as well, mine did, but I also used a delsol vtec p54 bracket, as a matter of fact, I think all the belts fit one another lol. I'm sure a crv belt is what your gonna need, make sure you run the tensioner pulley all the way down when you put the new belt on.
