When I first bought Phoenix Hunter, a well regarded mechanic, since retired, advised me to put a second belt on the harmonic balancer/water pump/alternator. These should be a matched pair of belts. This I did. It is now time to replace these and I have a spare matched pair, but when I went to Lordco to buy them the desk guy told me they no longer carried them and said I should be fine with two of the same belt. He said they’d replace them if they failed. I said that wouldn’t help me in the middle of nowhere!
Should I be concerned with obtaining a matched pair or should I just get two of the same belt?
