In general, no, but there is always the possibility that some manufacturer out there is the exception.

You don't have to. What you can do is take one bolt off the mount, slide the belt in the space. Then take the other bolt off and slide the belt the rest of the way. Remember to put he last bolt back on.

How do you replace ac compressor belt on a 1998 Honda civic?
Comprssor bolt will be in your way so you have to take that off. I take both mounting screws off and the belt comes off. You have to get the ac belt off there , so to do that you just cut the belt with a knife. Then there is no way of loosening the compressor, so what you have to do is loosen the pully wheel. It will be located under the power steering pump. Then all you have to do is slide that pully wheel down the slotted adjuster mount. Then you have to jack the motor up and loosen the engine damper mount and slide a new belt arount the mount. (If you want to take the belt off with out cutting it you will see what I am talking about). It has to be around the mount, and the mount is inside the loop of belt. Thread up the adjustable pully, compressor and drive wheel on the belt. and then Tighten the belt. When the tension is on the belt tighten the nut on the pully. check for the proper deflection.

How do you take off the serpentine belt belt on a 1998 olds acheiva?
Applies to all Oldmobile Achievas with a V6 3.1 liter engine. Looking at the belt system of the Achieva you notice right away that a piece of the engine is blocking the path. That is the motor mount. To take the belt off the pulley system, pull up on the idler pulley to take tension off the belt. Then slip the belt off and release the idler pulley. Next you have to remove that pesky motor mount, but you cant just unbolt it! Then Engine would fall over, or worse. Instead, place a jack under the engine near the pulley end. Lift the jack to take tension off the mount and THEN unbolt it. The gap between the mount and the engine is where you have to slide the old belt out and the new belt into. After sliding the belt into place reattach the motor mount. Make sure to torque the bolts. I noted that the engine will lean toward the rear of the vehicle when released. It may require a second person to push / pull the engine back into alignment with the motor mount. Get all of the bolts started before tightening. Lastly, lift the idler pulley and put the belt back onto the pulleys, making sure you have centered the belt on the alternator. If you don't get it centered, it will get chewed up quickly. --mark

The water pump is run off of the timing belt. Remove the front cover, you will need to support the motor and take off the passenger side motor mount. With the cover off, mark the timing belt both on the crankshaft and the cam. so you can replace it without worring about the timing. Loosen the tension pully and take the belt off the water punp. Change the pump and replace the belt and cover.

Take off the two nuts off the top and bottom of the motor mount that is broken, remove the two bolts with a hammer. You will use the hammer, also, to remove the old motor mount. Put the new motor mount in the same way you took the old one out. Then, replace the nuts and bolts.
