The serentine belt keeps your cooling fan turning and also helps the alternator which keeps your battery charged. The belt runs everything, Power Steering pump, water pump alternator as mentioned above as well as the air conditioning compressor and smog pump.
A diagram for the serpentine belt for the 1995 Bonneville can be found in an Chilton's manual for that year and make of vehicle. The belt diagram varies depending on the exact vehicle engine type.
drive belt for what on this vehicle? do u mean serpentine belt,or fan belt,or timing belt?
Depending on the vehicle it is either the timing belt or an external drive belt (ie: serpentine belt).
No, an accessory belt is not considered a serpentine belt. However, a serpentine belt is considered a specific type of accessory belt.
If your vehicle has a serpentine belt that is used to drive the accessories ( alternator , air conditioning compressor , power steering , etcetera ) the serpentine belt has a spring loaded tensioner that is supposed to keep the proper tension on the belt ( if it is working correctly )
There isn't a timing belt on this vehicle, it only has a serpentine belt for alternator, power steering, ect.
This vehicle probably isn't old enough to need a new belt, but I suggest you get a manual for it.
Almost every vehicle has a placard under the hood somewhere with a diagram of the belt routing.
That depends on the vehicle. IF the belt runs the water pump an alternator, you won't be driving very long.
The serpentine belt would be the same as the accessory drive belt.
The point at which you should have your serpentine belt changed depends on the vehicle. It is best to check the owner's manual. That said, under the best of conditions, the belt should last from 60,000 to 100,000 miles, depending on the vehicle. This doesn't mean the belt won't need to be adjusted at some point before it needs to be changed.
I presume you mean the A/C compressor. The easiest way is to buy a serpentine belt for the model of the vehicle you have without A/C fitted, and then use that. This is a known temporary cure for roadside assistance.
