If you are running an air cooled VW pack a fan belt!

You’ll know if it breaks as the alternator / generator light will come on.

You can tell immediately by the sound as well. All of the sudden, everything smooths out and all you hear is engine - it's like somebody shut off the vacuum cleaner. The engine will have nice power and be instantly more responsive - for a couple of minutes.

Shut it off as soon as it throws the belt. Don't pass go. Don't collect $200.
