Just looking on euro car parts for drive belt for the robin hood andni have about 6 to choose from! It's for a pinto and to go around crank pulley, water pump and alternator? Any way of knowing short of measuring it and going to the local factors?

Not got an old belt. Just measured using a piece of coax and got approx 33 inches, sound right?
