To get the length of the size belt you need tie a slip knot on a piece of rope and run it around the pulleys and tighten it down and mark the spot on the rope.. Take the rope to parts store for comparison..
To avoid the check engine light leave the egr hooked up completely. Run a new vacuum line from the soup can to the evr solenoid and then coming off that to the egr valve.
What about the wiring? I plan on deleting my 97 f250sd 5.8 smog pump. And Catalytic converter? I'm going to remove mine cuz its gonna get dirty quick due to no more gas recirculation. I've got 122k on my truck n its driving me nuts with this gd emissions system.
Do you have the belt running to the ac? If so that won't the right belt. I have a shorter belt on mine due to the compressor locked up, but I'm still rolling on the smog pump and that's a shorter belt than ac one.
@Thomas Roberts what I meant to say is it wouldn't be the right belt for my application I were to delete the smog pump too, mine hasn't shown any signs of going bad yet but I'm looking for options when it finally goes sour.
My 89 is already basic truck, no power glass, no cruise, manual 5 speed. I wanna strip away all the unnecessary junk under the hood eventually. Great video. Thank you 😊
I've got a 1993 F150 4.9 with A/C. My smog pump seized up snapping the belt. I bought the new belt 810K6 but it seems way too short. Did you route the belt the same way but just without a smog pump pulley or is there a different way tio route it now?
Jim Bryant ima be 100% honest with you. I don’t really remember but I want to say I had to route the belt alittle different, I do remember trying it a fiew times before I found a way it would work
After fixing the damn P0701 now I’m getting the P0401 once in a while 😫 I don’t drive the truck often but it looks like this mod is necessary in the near future... THANK YOU!!!🤘🏼🙏🏼
Well when I did the engine swap in this truck (5.0 to 4.9) the dash had a check engine light probably from the catalytic converters being deleted, I just ignored it for a while till my oil pressure gauge quit working so when I went to replace the gauge I just unplugged the check engine light. This was before I did the smog pump delete, truck never ran wierd from any of that
Extremely important and not mentioned in the video you need to remove the catalytic converter and install a short piece of exhaust pipe in its place otherwise overtime it will plug up and cause reduced engine performance and compression the smog pump is needed to pump air into the converter to burn up the noxious exhaust gases before the exhaust is released into the atmosphere I am doing the same thing with my 1996 eddie bauer series f150 if you are having trouble with the automatic transmission you can purchase and aftermarket transmission controller that bypasses the pcm and increases transmission performance available from bonham industries
that is good on mine I am leaving in the resonator that is between the cat and the muffler I do not thing that makes a difference I may just install a glass pack in the future with dual exhaust and see if that makes a difference
mines a little different I have the industrial inline straight six they put in tugboats tractors and other industrial equipment they always ran fine without all the emissions crap
anyone doing this should sell the air bypass/diverter (air control) valve on ebay, mine doesn't hold vacuum and I can't find them anywhere. They discontinued making them, I think Ford wants everyone to remove their '84-'96 smog pumps lol

Why even remove it? You could just put a shorter belt on it and that's it. Leave the system in place and just change the belt. $20 and 15 minutes of work

Thank you for the belt number,it saved my butt and now have my truck back on the road
2 things those trucks do not need. catalytic converters and smog pumps. Those are democrat parts.
ozarkprepper1 couldn’t agree more, cats took a hike before I even swapped this engine into the truck.
democrats are what is wrong with our great republic.
lol and they are contradictory. the emissions, weight etc and all that bs burns a shit ton of fuel + all the constant parts.

I thank you for being direct and to the point,,
Great video but I’m a little lost on how to plug/seal the left over lines properly like where and how I should do it I don’t wanna delete egr valve
I know this is an old video but on my 92 4.9 efi I ran a 82.5 inch 6 spline belt and it works perfect.
good to know! thanks
This is the best display I ever seen thanks so much my 6 sounding like a diesel 😂
Any chance on how you ran the belt, 96' f250 4.9l, the belts hitting an alternator bolt
would be cool to run a hydraulic pump for a winch where the old smog pump was
Ideas aplenty.
To avoid the check engine light leave the egr hooked up completely. Run a new vacuum line from the soup can to the evr solenoid and then coming off that to the egr valve.
They make a connector you can plug into the harness where the EGR plugs into to fool it!

How did you deal with the TAB, TAD, EVP, vacuum switches that control that junk?
He still has his coffe can in there so I don’t think he did
Gracias i just did it on my 93 f150 4.9 it works perfecto
Does this truck have air conditioning?
Does your truck have AC compressor??? I have a 94 with no AC would that require the same belt length??
no smog pump and no AC I would think it would be even shorter
The vacuum storage chamber statement is actually a muffler for the smog pump
Did this but my belts rubbing against the bolt closest to the alternator.
The routing around the water pump will change. Just take your time and make sure everything rotates clockwise.
