Accessory belts
 

My elderly family friend reported a squealing power steering belt so I thought I'd order one up and replace it but it seems there are more variations than I thought.

Can anyone tell me how many belts there are, what size and number of ribs, or do I need to see the car?

It's a 460 1.7 carb no ac, with PS.

If all else fails you might be able to find an original part number here ( https://www.gcp.se/en/catalogues/model/400-en/ ) but it will take some wading through.

Unfortunately Volvo seemed to lose interest in the 400 series; they're very poorly supported now and finding parts can be difficult.

It's not much help but as far as I recall it's a single polyvee serpentine belt. However the engines were sourced from Renault so you might be able to find an equivalent Renault part
