[VAC] Re: Belt insert..



Jeff,
I've been through this with my old 76.  You need to rivet it in place at the
start and end points like it was when new, for me it was under the side
emblems.  It will shrink and expand (leaving gaps) like you said if it is
not secured at the start and stop points.  I had to use a hair dryer to make
it pliable enough to get it fully seated between the aluminum grooves, but
once in place and secured, it never happened again.
