940 T-belt... how wide should it be? 900 1994

Hello guys,

After noticing a little slapping and ticking under the T-belt cover recently I had a chance today to pull the cover open and check it out. I was very surprised to see a very narrow belt riding off the front of the camshaft and idler pulleys. The belt looks to be in good shape other than it being less than half the width of the camshaft pulley.

Between the narrow belt (normal?) and it running 1/8" off the front of the pulleys (it's cutting into a lip on the rear cover section) What am I looking at to replace it?

There isn't any oil residue in the cover so at 117,000 miles I'm not going to mess with seals, just the belt and tensioner.

Is there a DIY guide anywhere? I have a Haynes for my old '88 740. Is it similar?

Thanks,

Erwin, in Roanoke.
