While changing my spark plug I noticed that this belt was getting worn. What's the name of it? It's right below Air Pipe A.

What he said. You have to remove the AC/Alt belt to get this one off, so you might consider replacing both at one time. All the parts stores carry them; I would get the least expensive O'Reilly/Advance/AutoZone belts and go for it.

Not totally true that they all carry them, I had a hard time finding them locally. I also wouldn't suggest buying the least expensive... I did that, the belt went bad at above highway speeds the exact same day I installed it, and there was nothing left. Had to drive an hour in another vehicle to go get another. I ended up replacing belts at a rate of one a week for a month and a half before I went and bought a goodyear belt. I was less than thrilled.

Gator backs are the type to use, only reason i had to replace both of mine is because the idler pully its self fell off( guess I didnt tighten it enought after rebuilding my top end hehe)

I definitely wouldn't cheap out on it. Too many times I have seen peoples power steering belt shred then cause the car to jump time.

Are bent valves really worth the $7 saved?

That really shouldn't happen unless you are missing some T-belt covers or it wraps up around the crank pulley in a really bad way. Anyway, I'd go for a known-brand quality one, no reason to cheap out on such stuff. As stealthee said, drop a few happy meals and pony up ~$7 or so for piece of mind :)

Thats what can happen if it shreds. It wraps around the crank. T belt covers wont even save you then.

It's a 4PK0925 should be pretty easy to find. You don't need the name or what it's attached to. Just the code. But make sure you change them all. the 0925 means it's 925mm long and the 4PK determines the type and width of the belt.

And the 365 in 365K4 means its 36.5" long for those of us in the US. :p

Got mine from where i used to work (O'Reilly's)
Any parts store should have them or be able to order them (usually next day item)

I believe both O'Reillys and Advance carries Gates as their top of the line belt. It has a 1yr warranty and it is a pretty good belt..
