    Overheating and NEW thermostat not opening.

    One day my car decided to go all the way to the top of the temperature gauge. I'm still using the stock one and yes I know they suck but, it got to the L and the redline so I figured maybe my thermostat gave out.

    89.5" or 90.0" belt for smog bypass?

    temporarily im re-routing the belt to not use the smog pump because mine is squealing. I tried a 89.5" belt and it seems physically impossible to put it on there. Would a 90.0" be sufficient or would i need like a 91.0" or something.
