How do you put a serpentine belt on a 2000 Cadillac Escalade?

From a standard socket wrench, the square part that fits inside the socket also fits in the center of the idler pulley (rather than buying a special tool that does the same). Fit the socket wrench (without the socket) in the idler pulley and turn to move the idler pulley and loosen the belt. Remove he old belt. Move the idler pulley again and put the new belt on. The diagram for the belt is on a sticker under the hood on the body above the grille.

Idler pulley diagram for a 2000 freightliner?

Need to know if you have a Detroit, Cat, or Cummins engine in order to answer this. As for the idler pulley itself, it's pretty simple to locate - it's the pulley which only spins, and doesn't actuate a pump, alternator, compressor, etc. Removing it is as simple as loosening the belt, unbolting it, and installing it in the opposite order.

How do you change the drive belt on a 2000 Chevy Venture?

The accessory belt assembly has a picture under the hood somewhere. If not, take a digital picture or two and print them out. The is an idler pulley, that is spring loaded. Generally, I've taken a small piece of rag or cardboard and put it into the jaw of the visegrips (so I don't gouge metal) and if you position it right, you can lock the grips onto the idler pulley. Pull in the opposite way of the tension on the belt. You should not have to pull too hard...slide the belt off the pulley. Then pull out the belt from around the rest of the pulleys. Release your hold on the idler. String back up the new belt, grab the vise grips, pull down on the idler, and you're home free.
