tensioner is on the left side near the a.c compressor its the small one towards the bottom... ... water pump is the one in the center on the top with no ribs on it... so here is what you do... route the belt around everything ... with the ribs one the inside... then grab it down on the bottom left and pull it towards the water pump... you should have enough slack to get it to rest on the small part... then from there you put both your knees on the radiator support so you can get good leverage... pull as hard as you can on the tensioner and slip the belt over the water pump pulley ... make sure you go under the idler that is right next to the alternator

i looked in my owners manual i didnt look under the hood but im pretty sure i know how it goes on i made like a mental pic of it while my old one was on correctly but there a little clip on the tensioner i stuck a flat head screwdriver in there and the tensioner shot in the completely wrong direction i was pissed but i finally got the clip back to the right place on the tensioner and i cant move it any farther up |

goes OVER your alternator pulley down to your power sterring to your crank then around your crank to the right side of the water pump pulley then around that to the belt tensioner pulley then up over to the a/c compressor and under your idle pulley to the alternator

i just didnt understand what you meant by using that wrench to lift the tensioner, so i was using my hand which is why i could only move it a little bit but i grabbed my brand new cresent wrench and it worked like a charm now to go to autozone thanks guys |
