Use a prybar to release the belt tensioner. This will allow you to slip it off. To install, you may need to remove a bolt from the alternator.
That is one way to do it but not on my 1992 Cherokee Limited 4.0 HO. The Power Steering pump was actually the the tensioner pulley. You have to loosen the base then loosen the adjusting bolt under the pump. Prybar and removing bolt from alternator would not work.
In a 94 GCL I used a 10mm(?) socket on the tensioner pully and pulled right. Slack was immediate. No need for removing anything except the belt.
The older XJ's use the power steering pump as the tensioner. Loosen the mount bolts on the pump and you should be able to see a threaded rod that will loosen when screwed in or out (it's been awhile!). Once the belt is swapped, do the opposite.
If the '94 is anything like my '98. In order to remove the belt there is a belt tensioner underneathe the power steering pump on the drivers side. Crack the bolt loose on the pulley of the tensioner. If you look to the right of it and behind it you will see a longer bolt, you need to use that bolt to adjust your tensioner so that it lets slack on your belt.
If yours has a tensioner pulley, loosen the bolt at the center of the pulley slightly, then turn the tensioner bolt ( top ) clockwise, tighten the pulley when done.
If no tensioner, you will want to tighten at the power steering pump.
Loosen the top bolt on the power steering pump, and the bottom nut, both are facing toward the front, then loosen the two on the back of the pump, then turn the adjusting bolt to the desired tension on the belt, the adjusting bolt is below the pump facing the drivers side. The alternator will move when you do this.

Please, rephrase the question. You say you have a 1989 Jeep Grand Cherokee, but the Grand Cherokee did not come out till late 92, but was considered a 93 model. If what you really have is a 1989 Cherokee, we need to know the motor size. The rest we can look up and give you the best answer possible.
as far as i am aware they should do tere the same hemi mote from 92 till 97
My 92 Cherokee Laredo has a 20 gallon tank according to the owner's manual (and a few trips to the gas station). The Haynes Repair Manual for Jeep Cherokee - 1984 thru 2001 mentions however, that there were some with 13.5 "Standard" and 20 "Optional". both above answers are correct. What I did was run the tank down to the yellow warning light and then some, you should still have 2+ gallons in there and then fill up...............Mike The Jeep Grand Cherokee in 2001 holds about 16 gallons. My 1996 Jeep Grand Laredo will hold 21.5 gallons, coasted into gas station once and it filled to this amount.
Clogged fuel filter, dying fuel pump, or possibly fuel pressure regulator.
Replace the belt with a new one.

It uses ATF
yes NO, The 89 uses a speedometer cable where the 92 is electronic.
The Grand Cherokee did not exist until the 1993 model year.
I bought a 92 Jeep Laredo and found it had a 1994 jeep engine in it.
probably crank sensor, they are famous for that
replace the radiator correct, the radiator is junk.
under the dash in your fuse panel . it will say radio .
Loosen the tensioner pulley. The serpentine belt will become loose and can be removed. Put the new serpentine belt on and tighten the tensioner pulley.
My son's 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 lists 3 pints of Dextron III oil.
Maybe the belt tension is too tight. This very same thing happen to me on a 92 Jeep Cherokee. Is the belt the right belt ? Length , width and design Check your routing If you did not move any components ( fly wheel ???? ) then look at the belt. looks like you got to change the belt again anyway get a belt from a dealership
