I have found using a socket with a racket wrench to be the easiest way to do it. When the tension is released the belt can be slipped off the tension pulley. The belt can be replaced the same way. Good luck.
rotate the tensioner clockwisse to release belt tension. remove belt from the auxilarary components and slowly release tensioner. route the new belt over the various pulleys, again rotating tensioner to allow belt to be installed then release tensioner. These models have a drivebelt routing decal on radiator shroud to help during installation.
Loosen the tension on the 95 Buick Park Ave belt by moving the belt tensioner to one side. Using a socket and ratchet on the tensioner pulley, pull to the side an remove the belt. Install the new belt an release the tensioner to hold the belt into place.
Well, on my 91 you have to move the belt tensioner off the belt by placing a 14mm wrench on the nut and move the tensioner off the belt. Remove the belt, release tensioner. Re-install in reverse order. Hope that helps.
It's on the front of the engine and the belt rides on it's pulley, it's the pulley that you have to release to get the belt off.
To adjust the serpentine belt tensioner on a 1994 Mitsubishi 3000GT, locate the tensioner pulley, which is typically mounted on a pivot. Use a wrench or ratchet to turn the tensioner bolt counterclockwise to relieve tension on the belt, allowing you to remove or adjust it as needed. Once the belt is in place, release the tensioner slowly to reapply tension to the belt. Ensure the belt is properly aligned on all pulleys before starting the engine.
Yep
To remove the belt tensioner on a 1994 Oldsmobile Delta 88, first, ensure the engine is off and cool. Use a wrench or socket to rotate the tensioner pulley counterclockwise to relieve tension on the serpentine belt, then slide the belt off the tensioner. Remove the mounting bolts securing the tensioner to the engine and take the tensioner off. Finally, replace it with a new tensioner, reattach the mounting bolts, and reinstall the serpentine belt.
You need to turn the automatic(spring loaded) tensioner to release pressure on the belt... the library may have a manual for the details free dave
To replace the serpentine belt on a 1995 Buick Park Avenue, first, locate the belt routing diagram, usually found on a sticker under the hood. Use a wrench or ratchet to release tension from the serpentine belt tensioner, then carefully remove the old belt from the pulleys. Install the new belt according to the routing diagram, ensuring it fits snugly in the grooves. Finally, release the tensioner to apply tension to the new belt and double-check that it is properly aligned on all pulleys.
you have to put a socket wrench into the hole on the tensioner and pull up on it to release the tension from the belt.

You should not have to. There is a belt tensioner that keeps the belt tight. If the belt needs to be tightened, you probably need a new tensioner, or you have the wrong size belt.
