Best Answer

Loosen all the bolts on the alternator and push down on the alternator and the belt will be loose and you can take it off, to reinstall you put new belt around the water pump and crank pulleys and then put it over the alternator pulley and pull up on the alternator and tighten the bolts back up and you should have a 1/2 " play in the belt when you push down on it, if you have more than that you need to unloosen alternator bolts again and pry the alternator up with a large screwdriver and re-tighten the bolts again and recheck.

How do you change the alternator on a 1994 Oldsmobile cutlass supreme 3.4l?

I've never changed an alternator on that particular car. But, on most cars you just loosen the belt tensioner and take off the belt. (Make sure you know how your belt is routed.) Then, undo the electrical connections to the alternator. Next, take off the alternator bolts. Last, do everything in reverse to install your new alternator. Hope that helps.
