[TR] TR 2/3 fan/alternator belts

[William Pugh]

I wrestled with this problem on my TR3, but then I bought the "narrow belt
kit" from Moss .  Aluminum Water  Pump Pulley, Aluminum Crankshaft Pulley with
Harmonic Balancer.  I had already replaced the engine driven fan and installed
and electric one.  This was the most noticeable modification I have ever made
to the TR3, the engine immediately ran much, much smoother, revved faster, and
made  Casper feel like he just wanted to "RUN" ...
