This is on a 912E but I guess it’s the same on a 914.
Do I have to remove the Alternator pulley to get the fan belt off? The adjustment doesn’t seem to adjust far enough to get the belt off. Thanks |

Jack up one side, put it in 5th, roll a tire.
Since your engine is in backwards;), you should be able to get a socket on the crank too. |

I would need 3 men and a boy to rotate the tire. It won't budge. I like all of the well-thought-out suggestions. I like the 90 mph one. But my car won't go 90 mph. Any yes, I could cut the belt with a pocket knife, but I plan to put it back on unless I can get a new one. keep the suggestions coming. Maybe one will work. Thanks |
