My '96 has a sticker on the inside of the hood which shows how the belt is routed. If your car doesn't have the sticker but the old belt is still on the car, I'd make a sketch of the path the belt takes before I changed it. Or, you could pick up a Chilton or Haynes manual at your local auto parts store. They're about $16 nowdays, but worth the price if they answer just one question. NOTE: there is a belt tensioner in the belt path. I've read that there is a special tool available to release the tension, but you can usually figure out how to do that with a screwdriver or some other tool.
How do you replace the serpentine belt in 1997 sunfire
go to a napa store they have these diagrams in their belt book
Nothing if the compressor bearings are good. Just unplug the wires at the compressor or pull the fuse. If the compressor is locked up or the bearings are shot, then you need to purchase a belt for a 1997 Pontiac Sunfire that came from the factory without A/C. Install the belt, bypassing the compressor, and just leave the compressor alone.
The pulleys sometimes separate and need replacing. There should be a schematic on the fan shroud.
The serpentine belt has a tensioner that you nust pry up to remove the belt. There should be a schematic of the routing of the belt on the fan shroud. If not, draw one before removing it.
Hey Christy==There should be a schematic on the fan shroud showing the routing of the belt. If not, go to a used car lot and find a car with a like engine and draw you a schematic. The idler simplly lifts and holds preasure on the belt. Goodluck, Joe
