There is a bulls eye on someone at ZIP at my house right now. Should I clean and keep the original serpentine belt? Would that matter to anyone in the future?
Sorry to hear about this. I can only imagine how you were/are with the quality of the Zip product.

I would recommend you get a new belt and toss the oil soaked one no matter how you clean it. For the price of the new belt just not worth in IMHO. Also recommend a Goodyear Gatorback belt if you can. Best wishes.
