to change the alternator belt, there is tow way. if the car is equip with a/c you need first to remove the a/c belt and then remove the alternator belt. both belt are put in place the same way, so you'll might have to do one or two. first, you have to untight the bolt over the alternator and let it in place. second, you have to untight the bolt under the alternator and let it in place. with your hands, you can rotate the alternator near the engine. once the belt is free, replace it with the new one. make sure the belt is place in the right pully slot and is correctly alligned. to tight the belt you will need to pry the alternator with a prybar. hold the tension with one hand and tight the bolt over the alternator with the oder hand. you can now stop prying and tight the bolt under the alternator. now check the belt tension. to have a good tension on your belt you can use a simple 12 inch wood rule (like in junior school) place the rule on the belt and with your hand pry the belt. for a proper tight strenght the belt should move about 1-2 inches. if its too tight the belt life will decrease and if it is to tight it will not rotate the alternator properly.

How do you change an alternator on a 1984 celebrity?
To change an alternator: 1. Remove the battery ground wire. 2. Unplug or disconnect the wires to the alternator. 3. Loosen the adjuster bolt and if needed the mounting bolt so the alternator will move to the side to take the drive belt off. 4. Take out the bolts and lift out the alternator. Installation is the reverse of the above. Be sure to adjust the belt to proper tension.

What causes alternator belts to break and squeal on a 1984 2.5L SE Pontiac fiero?
Make sure both the top and bottom bolts are tight, if the bottom is loose the alternator can "wiggle". Also I have noticed that the top bolt may sink into the slot provided for alternator belt adjustment. I put a slightly larger diameter thick washer on the top bolt and it cured "the agony of the screech"!
