How do you pully releaves the tension on a 2001 Pontiac sunfire to put on the belt?

Give the belt a couple of quick, short tugs to relieve the tension. The belt is most likely jammed. Then if it releases, pull it out slowly. If you pull the belt out too fast, it will often lock up. My mistake, I thought seat belt. The pulley that doesn't connect to anything like the crank or alternator is the tension pulley. It is spring loaded. Some have a place for a ratchet to go or you pry against the housing or the pulley itself as long as you don't pinch the belt. Relieve the tension and slip the belt off of another pulley and release the tension.

How do you change tension pulley on a Chrysler sebring 2001?

Usualy the tensioner is sold as an assembly-meaning you wouldn't just be replacing the pulley as the springs tend to weaken as often as the bearings going out. If you hear a noise and belt is not rotton/loose and are sure it is the pulley, after you have replacement, note belt routing. Use a socket that fits pulley bolt and move right against spring tension. If left req'd use pry bar. use uppermost tensioner to make it easier. Have helper (or use other hand) to get belt off. Remove old tensioner from block and add new. Replace belt.
