- You dont adjust tension, it has belt tensioner that keeps the belt tight. either your belt or tension is bad, my recommendation is to replace the belt first, if the belt remains tight then you are good, if the belt doesnt then replace the tensioner, but beware, since the belt is a serpentine belt, you may experience problems with other systems such as electrical or cooling since they are tied to the belt drive. just monitor it, anc give the engine a bit of time to adjust to proper function. If you do not you will have failure in other areas. after this is fixed run the engine and monitor cooling system, and check alternator for proper operation, should be charging or output around 13-14v consistently. It all depends on how long the belt has been not tight.
