    fan belt

    I'm replacing the fan belt on my zd30. Only thing is I can't get it on. It gets so close, I just need a few extra mm to slip it on...

    Any tricks to getting it on easily?

    Was it an aftermarket one? ZD30's only like guanines...

    Especially for: belts, filters, hoses, pulleys etc.
