Will a serpentine belt on a 2003 Chevy Venture van 3.4L V6 fit on a 2003 Chevy Blazer 4.3L V6?

venture 3.4 takes a 25060875 with 130A alt
25060864 with a 105A alt
blazer 4.3 takes a 25060952

so the blazer belt is longer and wouldn't fit

I don't show specific torque specs for the alt and PS brackets. If you know what size the bolts are you can use a bolt torque guide off the internet. It will give you torque specs by the bolt size and the grade of the bolt.

wow, is that s fully charged good battery? Are you saying that the battery voltage goes to zero after two hours? Or are you saying that it won't turn the engine over after tow hours of being charged all the way up?

How cold is the temperature where you are at? Very low temperatures can cause a battery to not star the engine.

If the battery goes so low that the lights won't even work I would suspect a bad battery. Lights don't take hardly any amps to run.

Do you have any aftermarket draws on your battery? (like a big amp that isn't switched off when the key is off?)

Using an amp meter could tell you if there is a big current draw on your battery. Don't use an in-lime ammeter because your draw may damage the meter if the battery draws draw in just a couple of hours. Use an inductive meter around the battery cable to start finding the draw..

what is the year make modle and engine of the vehicle you are having the problem with?

does the driver's door lock work normally from the door controls?

what is the make, model, year and engine of the car you are asking about?

did it run before you did your tune up?

what did you replace in your tune up?
