well i bought some belts after i talked to someone and i looking into what they said. the guy who replaced the belts last might have made a big mistake and we'll see what happens. the belt doesn't seem to be on right.ill give a sitrep when i get it on.

Update : a shocking discovery, the bonehead who owned the car before me must have burned out the alternator belt because the air con belt was put on the alternator and not even around the water pump...
well i got the new belts but i can't get the alternator belt to go on tight enough. any tricks of the trade would be much appreciated.

Update : a lil leverage and the belt squeaks no more, now onto the air con belt. looks like its gonna be a pita. advice welcome
