Zetec single v water pump pulley??
Is there one that fits, in the throws of messing about and if I can change to a simple v pulley it would help!
Cheers
Clive

I do not know , but why it "would help" ?
You can use a "multi V" without any problem. In my case I used the big mondeo alternator for example.
Maybe you already know but if not : if you use a water pump from escort it work clokwise if you use a water pump from mondeo it works unclockwise, in
my case I put a escort water pump in my mondeo engine to have the pump turn right.
Sorry about my English

As the crank pulley and water pump are multi-v it seemed simplest to me to source a small alternator that also had a multi-v pulley. In my case suzuki
swift which was only 3 v's so I wandered the racks of belts in Halfords, which are arranged in size order and handily marked with their length
in mm and selected one a six v jobby. Careful cutting with a stanley knife turned it into two 3 v belts. Result.
If your engine is a blacktop you will need a multi-v anyway as the pump will be driven off the back of the belt.

Its all down to clearance! the extra few mm between multi and single v would help and mean easier installation. Looks like its out with mr angle
grinder!
