<VV> fan belt.

[J R Read_HML]

Only the 2 90s at the idler and the generator/alternator (EM vs LM) plus the 
2 360s at the fan and crank pulley/harmonic balancer.  No OTHER twists.  3 
miles with no belt is about 2 3/4 miles further than I would want to go with 
no belt.  You'll know later if you hurt anything when a valve seat drops out 
of place.  There is a temp/pres light on the dash.  Some vairs have a head 
temp gauge.  You did not tell us what car/engine, so the answers are a bit 
generic.
