Replace your a/c evaporator filter under dash. Liquid refrigerant is getting back to compressor causing belt to break.

Why is your alternator belt continuing to break and snap on your 97 Mazda Protege?

I am having the same problem with a 99 Protege. I have changed the alternator and aligned/cleaned the pulleys and the problem persists.I replaced the alternator, on my 1997 Mazda Protege, seven times before someone figured out why the serpentine belt kept breaking. It was the belt tensioner! It had to be removed and rebuilt. Now it is working like a charm!! And I havn't had to replace the alternator in over 3 months!!!!


When to do a timing belt on a 2.2L?

The GM 2.2L (not ECOTEC) engine for that model year used a timing chain with a teflon tensioner. As far as I know, it had no belt. However, the tensioners are notorious for failure...they break off and get between the chain and the sprocket, which snaps the chain. When this happens, the valves contact the pistons, bending them. If the engine is starting to sound like a diesel, you should consider having the chain and tensioner replaced.

It has to do with the ABS most likely mine would engage or slip when coming to a stop.I replaced the hub that has the sensor on it and have not had a problem since.I took out my ABS fuse under the hood till I got it fixed. Just disables the anti lock part of the brakes. I thought it was safer then rear ending someone.
