This is a simple way to replace your belt without the old one for comparison. Use a piece of rope thick enough to fit inside the pulley, (cloths line works well). Simple wind it around the pulleys marking where the two ends meet. Cut and measure it. Take the piece of rope and measurement to a auto parts store and ask them to match it up. An automotive belt will work fine.
If this is a flat belt they should still be able to help you.

You may be able to find the belt you need on ebay. There is a seller named "Footballcardcellar" who lists these often and they are alot cheaper than buying the kit from Husky. Just search "Air compressor belt husky"

Compressor reaches 125 psi but does not shut down

Depending on how old your compressor is, usually inside the pressure regulator cover are instructions on how to adjust the turn-on and shut-off pressures. If not, it usually invloves turning a nut or screw to lessen the pressure on the spring that keeps the contacts closed. Try adjusting the pressure down. If it won't come down to a safe level you will be better off replacing the pressure switch. The number you give above is the Campbell-Hausfeld (they are Husky) part number for the pump and motor assembly so I don't know which CH pressure regulator you need. They are easy to find and easy to replace.

I have a Husky air compressor model WL651004AJ. The problem is that it builds pressure initially up to 75 psi then shuts off. I have to turn off the power switch, wait about 5 minutes, turn the switch back...

It sounds like you need to replace the run capacitor , if yours is weak or defective the motor will overheat. Check "Drillspot" for a replacement. Another major cause of overheating is due to a dirty air filter , you should check it first.

The belt broke on this unit...how do I install it?

Unplug the power cord or shutting off the circuit breaker. Remove the belt guard loosen the four bolts that hold the motor to the compressor frame. The holes in the frame are slotted to move the motor for belt tensioning. Remove the old belt by pushing the motor toward the compressor. Place the new belt on the pulleys and hand tighten the four motor bolts. Align the two pulleys with each other. Apply a little tension on the V-belt. Place the bar at the base of the motor and push the motor back using the frame of the compressor as the leverage point & deflect the belt downwards with your finger. You should have approximately ½ inch of free belt deflection. Tighten all four motor mounting bolts & check the deflection of the V-belt and the alignment between the pulleys again. Realign or re-tension as necessary. A correct fit will ensure proper operation of the air compressor. Replace the belt guard on the air compressor and reapply the power. Check the belt movement through the guard and for proper operation of the compressor by following the manufacturer's instructions.

My belt broke from my air compressor and i dont have any way to find the size of my old belt. i have a wl 650001aj compressor. can yall help me find a belt number so i can go to a automanufator to find...

The belt for your compressor is available in a kit from www.chpower.com the part number of the kit is WL015303SJ

Here is a picture of the kit, http://www.mastertoolrepair.com/images/WL015303SJ_medium.jpg

The reason the belt is sold in a kit form is because the belt will fail when the in-tank check valve fails or begins to leak pressure back into compressor. I do not believe that the belt is sold thru automotive supplier. It is too small. Here is the number stamped on the belt BT012100AV, it has 8 ribs and is about 15 inch length. Good luck

Need to find out how to replace belt on WL65 cambell hausfeld air compressor

Not sure how easy it will be to locate repair instructions if they are not in your manual. However maybe the diagram of the pump is all you need. Just click on the first link below. It will open up the pump diagram. #14 is the belt.
I also included the link to the site where you can get a look a at the parts list and order parts for your compressor.
Hope something here helps.
If not please let me know and I'll try and describe the proccess for the belt remove to you.

Need the napa belt number for this. or wherever i can get a belt for it.. i dont have the belt that was on it

Measure this with a tape - go to NAPA and tell them what you are doing and give them the distance around the two pullies. The NAPA affiliates I have used in the past have had a very liberal return policy if I was in error.
