I've got an 85 2.5 celebrity and am assuming that your 86 is similar. Most people might think this is a stupid question, but I've spend hours trying to locate all the bolts to loosen. The alternator belt is straightforward. Loosen the alternator bolt in located in the slider portion and the pivot bolt (15mm on mine). The compressor belt is straightforward. Loosen the two compressor adjustment bolts in the slider slot and the loosen the pivot bolt. This belt will be hard to remove even with the compressor fully pushed down. Take some vitamins. The worse belt by far is the power steering belt. Loosen the pivot bolt on the bottom of the power steering "canister". There are two adjustment bolts to loosen from my memory. The one that is easy to find is on the engine side of the Power Steering canister. The other is hard to see but is located on the pulley side between two of the pulleys. It's also hard to get a wrench on. But, you've got to find and loosen this bolt. I cringe when this belt breaks. Good Luck!!!

Is it hard to put on a drive belt 1985 2.8 celebrity Chevy?

It is no more difficult to put a drive belt on a 1985 Chevy Celebrity than it is in most other cars. Just loosen the driven device, move the adjustment in and remove the belt then replace in the reverse order. Of course if the belt you want to replace is the inside most position you will have to go through the process on the outer belts to get to the inner belts, but that is true on any vehicle.

How do you change the power steering pump belt on a 1986 Chevy Celebrity?

To change the power steering pump belt, or any other belt for that matter: 1. Loosen the adjuster bolt. 2. Loosen the mounting bolt enough that the belt is loose. 3. Take off the belt to be changed and replace it with the new belt. If the belt is buried behind other belts, for example air conditioner or power steering, it will be necessary to loosen the bolts and remove the outer belts to get to the inner belt you need to change. While you have the outer belts off is a good time to consider changing them as well.
