How do you loosen the slack on an alternator belt for a 97 Pontiac Sunfire?
If you're changing the alternator, you can loosen it's bolts to gain some slack, but you'll need more.This is done using the belt tensioner. It's a pulley looking thing in the belt path. On my '96, it's down and back from the alternator. It's surface is often very shiny and it has what looks like a nut on the front. If you put a wrench or socket on the nut, you can rotate the entire assembly away from the belt. That will let you get the belt on or off.The Haynes manual has a pretty good illustration.FriPilot
