Should have a spring loaded belt tensioner
you cant, it has an automatic belt tensioner.. you would have to replace the belt if it has stretched
there is no adjustment for tension on a serpentine belt because there is a spring tensioner the belt goes around and if it is sticking and not keeping the belt tight enough you will have to replace the tensioner. They probably cost more than the labor to do it.
The alternator is rotated on it's pivot to adjust belt tension.
no its the same belt that runs everything the tensioner may be getting bad or the belt routing might be wrong
Adjust it.
Loosen the alternator tensioner bolt. You will be able to slide the alternator either way to adjust the tension on the belt.
There is no adjustment. It has a tensoner that keeps the belt tight.
If it is a drive belt and not a serpentine belt is has no tensioner. You manually adjust the tension by normally adjusting tension by moving the alternator. Loosen to bolts holding the alternator in place and then adjust the tension. Tighten the bolts when the tension is right. If it is serpentine belt if you follow the belt around the the engine you will see the tensioner.
There is no way to adjust the belt tensioner, if it's not keeping enough tension on the belt the complete tensioner itself will need replaced.
you do not adjust tension on a serpentine belt the tension is automatcally adjusted if the belt is loose, replace the belt SOME TIMES THE TENSIONER CAN BE WEEK ALSO.
If it is a serpentine belt, the tension is automatically adjusted by the tension idler. If the belt is loose then the tensioner needs replacing. If it is a normal drive belt, then the alternator is mounted on a slotted bracket that allows you to adjust the position of the alternator. You can loosen the bolts and adjust the tension on the belt.
Apply a wrench to the center bolt on the pully and turn it will adjust the tension.
