Remove the belt from your 1997 Chevy Lumina alternator. Remove the wiring harness from the back of the alternator. Remove the alternator retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install the new alternator.
You have to loosen the tension on the belt by loosen the nut normally found on the pulley located by the motorblock, manifold or even by the alternator pulley it's self.
there should be 3 bolts attaching the alternator, 2 short bolts and 1 long bolt
Well if you can drive around for 15 to 30 min and you battery is still dead then your alternator is bad or if you put a new battery in and it go's dead avry time you run the truck then your alternator is bad
Estimate around $400
