I need someone smarter than me!! I got the fuel issue repaired on the 95 Caravelle. Looks like the fuel pump was the issue. Went out for a couple of short rides this weekend (although I knew it would be rough with all the weekenders out for the first time). On the final return trip the belt snapped that runs the alternator, water pump, etc. Here's where I need more intelligence:

After contorting myself to look at every angle of the belts path, it looks like the engine mounting bracket will have to be removed in order to install the new belt. Does this seem normal, won't it allow the engine to shift causing an alignment issue, and finally does anyone want to buy a Caravelle?

Dear Murph. Prolly a good idea to run that over here and let us put that belt on. Yep, you must suspend the front of the engine and remove the front engine mount to replace the belt.

LOL, Steve.

Murph needs a new cell phone. That Android isn't so "Smart". I figure the text message I received today was probably sent at the time of the incident. Blows my mind how your phone texts are delayed up to two weeks or so. To bad too. Knowing your dining habits, we were probably close by after leaving Catherine's with some beautifuls cuts of meat. With your luck I am not sure I am letting you in the boat down in Chandeleur.
