Fan Belt for the engine front-end auxiliary drive.

Driven from the crankshaft pulley, this belt turns the water pump and cooling fan together with the dynamo on a single run. Because one belt serves both the cooling circuit and the charging circuit, a slack, glazed or perished belt typically presents as two faults at once: a low or intermittent charge rate and a rising coolant temperature.

Tension is set by slackening the dynamo mountings and swinging the unit on its adjusting link until the specified deflection is obtained at the longest free span, then retightening. Belt tension should be rechecked after the first period of running, as a new belt beds in and loses some of its initial tension.

For 2.0L diesel and 2.25L petrol engines.

Frequently asked questions

What is this fan belt used for?

This fan belt is the drive belt that runs from the crankshaft pulley to turn the water pump and cooling fan, and usually the dynamo, on early Series Land Rovers. If it slips or snaps the engine loses cooling and charging. It's a routine service and wear item.

How do I know this belt is the right size?

The surest way is to match it against your existing belt, comparing length and width, since belt sizing is critical to fitment. This belt is listed for early Series engines, but engine and pulley variations affect the exact size. Measuring your old belt before ordering avoids one that's too long or short.

Which engines is this fan belt listed for?

This belt is listed for the Series 2 from 1958 to 1961 with the 2.0 diesel and 2.25 petrol engines. It's noted as not for the 2A, and not for the 2.6 Forward Control. Fitment data on this belt is limited, so confirm against your engine and existing belt before ordering.

What are the signs a fan belt needs replacing?

Signs include squealing on start-up or under load, visible cracks or glazing on the belt, and fraying at the edges. A slipping belt can cause overheating and a flat battery as the water pump and dynamo lose drive. Fan belts perish and stretch with age, so they're replaced as routine maintenance.
