How do you remove a idler pulley1988 tbird?
One configuration of the idler pulley on the 1988 was a solid pulley connected with two bolts to a bracket on the front of the engine. The other configuration was a spring loaded pulley. If the bracket kind, remove the tension (with the bolt on top, you need to actually TIGHTEN the bolt to loosen the tension), then loosen the two bolts connecting to the bracket. Comes loose pretty easy. Replacement is around $15. http://www.marksatterfield.com

How do you change a serpentine belt on a 91 Toyota pickup V6 3.0?
You'll notice an idler pulley. One that does nothing more than apply tension on the belt. Loose the front bolt of this slightly, then access the bolt that appears to go into the backside of the pulley and loosen it slightly to reduce tension on the belt. When installation of the belt is complete, tighten down the tensioner bolt till the belt is not overly tight, about 1/4" of spring is good to avoid slippage. Then tighten the lock bolt on the front of the pulley.
Where is the tension pulley for a '97 Mercury Sable GS?
The tension pulley is in the center of the sepentine belt, it is one of the smaller pullies that is smooth on top. You will feel a bolt on the fron of it (a 15 millimeter I believe) you need to put the wrench on it and hook a cheater bar, or another wrench (lock the ends together) and pull down towards the front of the car. When the belt is loose slip it off. It is much easier to do with two people. CAUTION! This pulley is sring loaded and very hard to pull down, if you loose your grip or your wrench slips you or the person helping could be seriously injured.
