How do you replace a BMW alternator belt?

I know that on the E30's (until 1991) the alternator has a mounting bolt that controls tension on the belt. (1)Just loosen that bolt and the rest is a breeze. (2) Move the alternator in to remove the old belt. (3) Put the new one on. (4) Use a bar or large wrench as a lever to move the alternator out and to put tension on the belt. (5) Hold it there while tightening the mounting bolt. (6) Wash your hands 'cause you're done.

How can you adjust the tension on the alternator belt of a 1991 dodge spirit?

Look at the face of the alternator. Below it is a round thing that looks like a dial. Loosen that nut - 15mm...To the right of the alternator - or if you are standing in front of the car -- in front of the alternator, below it -- is a nut on a threaded rod -- 1/2" socket AND a universal adapter because of the extreme angle of this nut.... This is what pushes the alternator up or down.CCW allows pushing the alternator down ( loosen the belt ) -- andCW brings the alternator back up ( tighten belt )StanFarmington CT
