Take a 1/2" ratchet ot breaker or torque wrench without a socket and place it in the square slot in between the two small pulleys on the auto tensioner and pull hard towards the passenger side fender - the belt will come off. Be careful and make certain that your ratchet is secure in the slot!
Where is the belt tensioner on a ford 2003 f350 6l diesel? i need to loosen so that i can replace the alternater
there is no repair for a belt tensioner. just buy a new tensioner. remove old belt, remove old tensioner, it is held on with one bolt. install new tensioner. install new belt

If your F350 has a serpentine belt it really can't be 'tightened'. The tensioner, located on the passenger side second pully down on a 7.3 PSD, is what provides the tension on the belt. If you are getting slack then it is probably time to replace the tensioner. If you are at all mechanically inclined it is a fairly easy task. Even if you are not and have a Haynes manual you can probably knock it out in a few hours.
Use a long breaker bar with a 3/8" or a 1/2" drive on it and insert the drive into the square on the tensioner,it should be easy to see, then release the tension on the belt,then remove the belt and install new belt then you can put the tensioner back on to the belt by moving the tensioner so the belt will slip on. Look on your radiator top support there is a diagram of how the belt goes around all the pulley's.

The idler tensioner pulley on your 1999 Ford F3 50 pickup truck is held in place with a single retaining bolt. The retaining bolt will go through the middle of the pulley. Tighten the retaining bolt to install the tensioner pulley.
