Hairyarse 0 Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 A few noob questions! Just been reading up here on changing the serpentine belt. Wanted to know a couple of things;1. How do you know how much to tension up the new belt?2. Do you have to align any pulleys or anything or no need?Hope someone can help, want to get this done at the weekend, mine looks pretty wornCheersAndy Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Dont need to align anything as it does it anyway, and the tensioner will put correct tension on belt Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Oh and its quite an easy job as well Link to post Share on other sites
Hairyarse 0 Posted June 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Cheers for the quick reply craggsy The how-to was saying about winding the tension off with an M8 bolt - so do you just wind it back on fully when re-fitting? Link to post Share on other sites
