*H22 hybrids..no a/c, what alternator belt?*

[PRIMOCB7]

since the winter is around the corner, i don't see a need for the a/c right now. at least i can save up for the summer to have the a/c lines retrofitted later on. but i noticed the H22 alt. belt is 6 ribbed. is there another Honda belt, that can fit my H22 without a/c??

Use a 90-93 DX belt.

even tho ur crank pulley and h22 alt are 6 ribbed, get the 5 ribbed 9093 accord DX belt [im assuming cb9h23 has the correct part number] because youre gonna be using the f22 a/c compressor in the future, which is 5ribbed.

# is correct,just looked it up.

Im using my accord alternater with the 5 ribbed belt on my H22. I got a lil gap on the crank pulley tho but it works.

..well thats the thing, gonna keep the H22 ac compressor coz the f22 ac compressor was on its way out. but having a 5 ribbed belt shouldn't coz problems, right? just wanna make sure, thats all coz im gonna be running w/ UR crank and alternator pulleys.

idk why i said u should use a 5ribbed belt to allow for the f22 compressor, if the belt ur getting is too short to allow for a compressor... lol i guess u can disregard my previous post.

anyway yeah u can use either 5 or 6, but if u need to leave a groove unused, leave the outermost one empty.
