Re: Gates belt wear tools

That's funny I was servicing my DD yesterday & was looking at the drive belt and thought about that wear tool & just kind of assumed they were not sending them. Now I'll be like a dog waiting at the window for it's master to come home.

1+2+2 does equal 5. but when you figure in the fact of how flimsy they are and break I now have 4.:lol:

Got mine today. Probably should have used the finger hole 1st time. I got lucky & when I knocked it out of my clumsy awkward fingers it fell all the way through to the ground.

That is funny :lol:

Mine came a couple days ago in a small manila mailer, but the return address was Gates Corporation. Mrs Stocker was curious so I opened it & we had show & tell. :D
