Part of my reply "fell off" somewhere. I converted the screenshot to .jpg the 3rd time I emailed. Still "not visible" the lousy supplier advised..I'm now waiting for eBay to come good.

Great, thanks. I note the info that no more than 1% stretch is allowed for Kevlar corded belts. That's 1 1/8" for a 114" belt. I had the order confirmation saved (email). The supplier wanted a screenshot, which I attached to an email. Supplier stated "no attachment visible" 3 times

Anyone know the correct length for the engine to cutting deck drive belt and how much does it normally stretch? The old belt was type 'B' (ie 5/8" top width) and about 116" long. Bought a new one, 116" long and it has now stretched to 117" which is so long the spring loaded tensioner pulley...
