I could not get the belt suggested by my last inquiry at my friendly local
auto parts store.  So I ordered the best belt offered by Moss (Flennor
20x0900LI) to replace the failed belt on my alternator equipped 1960 TR3A.  It
does not come close in length, even when prying it as suggested in their
instructions.    It was probably intended for the much narrower generator.   I
forgot that difference in width would limit the amount it could be adjusted.
Duh

Does anyone have any other suggestions for a pulley belt that will fit a TR3A
with an alternator?

Thanks

John
