Safety 1st. Engage parking brake and brace wheels. Disconnect the Neg. battery terminal. Label and disconnect the wires to alternator. From below and using the tire tool that came with the truck, release the belt tensioner by inserting the tool into the "slotted" opening and rotating ccw (counter-clock wise). Loosen and remove the alternator hold down bolts. Installation is in reverse order. Note: Partial information from Haynes Repair Manual, Chevrolet S-10 & GMC Sonoma, Haynes Publishing Group, #24071.

: : I just had to do this...not the toughest job I've ever tackled. : Start by removing the fan shroud (I didn't & it just made the task more difficult). Once the shroud is out of the way you'll have much more room to release the tensioner, using a 3/8" rachet, and removing the belt. Remove the top (13mm) bolt on the back (toward the fire wall), then remove the lower (10mm) bolt on the back. Then, while supporting the alternator, remove the front 10mm bolt. Rest the alternator on a frame member to remove the electrical leads...one snaps in and the other requires a 13mm socket. : Sidebar...1/4" rachet drives or "stubby" drives are helpful! : Installation really is the reverse of this! Connect the leads, put the front bolt then the back bolts in, and replace the belt! : Good Luck!!

How do you replace a motor mount on a 95 Chevy s10 4-cylinder 22l?

To replace a motor mount on a 1995 Chevy S-10 4-cylinder 2.2L, the engine will need to be hoisted up out of the vehicle until the new motor mount is welded in, if the mount is rusted out. Then lower the engine, keeping it on the hoist until both motor mounts are secured. Then, it will be necessary to hook up all other parts to the motor, like the transmission. If the motor mount is only missing the bolt, then replace the bolt with a new one.

You replaced the head on your 1997 Chevy s10 22l 4 cylinder and it wont idle without sounding like it's missing why?

Generally when the head gets replaced you would also want to replace your plugs as well. It can sometimes be a result from where the water has traveled into the oil from a bad head. I replaced mine with bosch platinum 2 and haven't regretted it for 2 years.
