make sure you have a diagram, use a long box end wrench to torque the tensioner which is near the top. When you rotate the bolt head, it will relax the tensioner. Remove the belt and then replace around all components except the tensioner. Push on the tensioner wrench again to make room for the belt to go over tensioner.

You just changed the alternator on a 90 LSC you are having trouble getting the belt tensioner back on Is there a trick?
im going on the assumption that you are referring to the belt back on the tensioner cause there is no reason to remove the tensioner to install an alt. if it is a matter of putting the belt on, make sure that the belt is routed correctly through the pulleys. then remove the belt off the alternator, put the belt on the tensioner THEN pull the tensioner back with a wrench on the tensoiner adjusting nut. slip the belt on the alternator and slowly release the wrench. i hope this was helpful

How do you Change serpentine belt on 2000 Chevy suburban?
Must be similar to my 98 suburban. Make sure there is a sticker that tells you the routing for the belt somewhere on the front of the car under the hood. Buy a good gates belt. It may cost more, but its worth it. I put a cheaper one on that worked but made an unerving noise. Find the tensioner for the belt. Mine is right next to the alternator on 5.7 liter v8. Your objective is to relieve the tension on the belt at the tensioner and then pull the belt sideways off the tensioner. Once that is done, you just pull the belt out. You can unscrew the bolt in the middle of the tensioner out a ways and pull the tensioner out but not all the way out. this should release the belt. Make sure when you put the tensioner back on that you align the tang on the back of the tensioner in its hole. Option 2: If you are strong enough, You should be able to force the tensioner with your hand to a lower position wihtout taking the tensioner off and then sliding the belt off and on. Remember to look at your belt routing when putting the new one on. You can do this. Good luck.
