Best Answer

this is pretty straight forward. remove the black air tube ,2 bolts, then you have easy access to alternator.loosen the top long alternator bolt then the other one below the alternator,all you are wanting to do is loosen these bolts so you can take the tension off the alternator,pop off the old belt,and gently wind it over the fan and out it comes. reverse procedure to install new belt.When you put on new belt do not do it up so tight that it is like a guitar string,leave 1/4 inch flex in belt.
