ALLRIGHT LAST WEEK ON THE WAY TO WORK I HAD MY BELT BUST ON ME. I DRAINED MY BATTERY BUT I MADE IT TO AUTOZONE WHERE I COULD GET EVERYTHING THAT I NEEDED SUCH AS A TENSIONER TOOL(RENTED FOR A REFUNDABLE $25 WHEN YOU TAKE IT BACK) AND THE BELT. I WOULD ALSO RECOMMEND TO CHANGE OUT THE BELT TENSIONER IN A WHILE IN ORDER TO CHANGE IT YOU WILL HAVE TO PLACE A JACK (FIND A GOOD STRONG SPOT YOU DONT WANNA PUNCH A WHOLE IN YOUR OILPAN) UNDER ENGINE BECAUSE I HAD TO SUPPORT THE ENGINE A BIT TO TAKE THE TWO OF THE BOLTS(I USED A LUG NUT CROSS TOOL THAT YOU WOULD USE TO CHANGE OUT YOUR TIRE) FROM A MOTOR MOUNT. THEN THE MOUNT SHOULD SPRING UP A LITTLE BIT AND GIVE YOU A GAP. NOW YOU CAN SLIDE THE BELT IN. USE THE DIAGRAM THAT CAME ON THE BELT PACKAGING OR LET AUTOZONE PRINT ONE OUT FOR YOU PLACE THE BELT IN THE CORRECT POSITION EXCEPT FOR THE IDLE WHEEL RIGHT OVER THE BELT TENSIONER. WITH THE TENSIONER TOOL SPRING YOUR TENSIONER COUNTERCLOCKWISE AND SLID THE BELT IN ON THE IDLE WHEEL. DOUBLE CHECK AND MAKE SURE THE BELT IS IN PROPERLY. NOW YOU CAN PUT YOUR BOLTS BACK ON THE MOTOR MOUNT. I TELL YOU TO DO THIS LAST IN SUCH OCCASION THAT THEY GIVE YOU THE WRONG SIZE BELT AS HAPPENED TO ME. YOU SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO NOW. ITS PRETTY EASY , IT JUST LOOKS COMPLICATED.

Can you replace a 1998 Oldsmobile intrigue 3.8 liter v6 engine with an Oldsmobile alero 3.4 liter v6 engine if not what can you replace the intrigues engine with?

A 3.8 of the same series from any GM Division. 3.4 do not share the same bolt pattern. 3.5 Intrigue engines are only in certain Intrigues and Auroras, and do not share the bolt battern with 3.8s. But this comes from someone who has put a 455 Toro in the rear of an S10, and a W-41 in a Fiero. Anything goes in anything if you are creative. :)
