No!! there is something causing the belt to run like that check the alignment of the complete pulley system. I'am speaking from experience with that exact car.

The belt SHOULD NOT ride off the side of any of the pulley's. It sounds like you first need to draw a picture of how the belt is routed and then purchase and install a new one.

Good Luck and Remember.

  • 99 times out of 100, the problem is the tensioner itself. I do a million and of these every year, and the tensioners will get worn at the pivot point, and start running out of line with the rest of the pulleys. Start by looking hard at the possibly replacing the tensioner assembly.

Is their a tesioner pulley on a 1994 geo prism?

Yes, it is used to adjust the tension on the A/C compressor. Looking into the engine compartment from the passenger side it is to the left of the alternator. To adjust tension you need to loosen the bolt which holds the pulley and then adjust the bolt which is directly above the pulley. Once you have proper tension tighten the pulley bolt.


How do you tighten a serpentine belt for a 1998 Ford Contour?

Buy a Chevy!!!! That was a big help. Most but not all serpentine belt systems have a spring loaded tension pulley that just holds constant tension on the belt. If there is a tension pulley, it will be the one pulley that is not attached to anything like the alternator or AC. After that, the alternator is the most likely to be the one that adjusts.
