All,

I rebuilt the '74 2.0 over the past few years and did not do anything with the seatbelts...........I tried and the coils jumped out - took me a day to get that back together......

The seatbelts do not recoil properly nor are they easy to pull into place.....draggy and catching.......

Is there a thread in the forum with a solution to this aggravation?

Thank you Teeners!

I temporarily un stuck (and cleaned) both belts by soaking them in hot soapy water. Placed in a home depot bucket or similar.

Work well and the smelled much better.

I say temporarily because I switched to 944 belts a week later.


Edit: I suppose the soapy fix only helps if they are gummed from dried up grease. Not a recoil issue.

Are the 944 belts plug and play?
