The Unofficial "Ask a Stupid Question" Thread

Didn't know that Continental bought Goodyear. Looking at their belts, the "Continental Elite" looks exactly the same as the Gatorbacks did.

NOS gatorbacks are still around on eBay. This should be the correct one for a stock 4.6....

Serpentine Belt Goodyear Gatorback 4060975 5060975 6PK2475 K060975 | eBay

NOTE: THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF SERPENTINE BELTS INCLUDING ALTERNATOR BELT, AC BELT, POWER STEERING BELT, ETC. PUT IN YOUR VEHICLE INFORMATION (YEAR, MAKE, MODEL, ENGINE SIZE).

From what I can find, Continental doesn't make the "Elite" gatorback style belt in right the size for our cars.

edit... Actually I think I found them on eBay but it appears they discontinued it, so they are old stock too. :unsure:

Here's my dumb question.


Is there a way for the EEC (MBE2) to see fuel level? I want it to read through my OBD2 app.

My belt isn’t stock length due to the timing cover I’m using (I’ve been scrambling through my notes today but I’m pretty sure it’s 05 Mustang). I’ve seen the NOS belts but if they’re 10+ years old I really don’t trust them.
 
I did a google search the other day, and it took me to the conti elite.
They are also making the blue heater hose, but it's silicone now.
