There isn't one. The tension for the serpentine belt is an automatically spring loaded tensioner on top of the engine in the front. Place a 3/8 inch ratchet in the square slot of the tensioner arm and pull it back to releive tension on the belt. Then when you put the new belt on pull it back to get it on the pullies then release it to tension the belt.

How do you remove the spark plug on a 88 ford tempo lx behind the alternator?
Either you might use a universal socket attachment or just loosen the large bolt on the alternator. Move the alternator slightly on the pivot enough to get the ratchet in to comfortably loosen and re-tighten the spark plugs. However, marking the starting position of the alternator before loosening may be wise. So as to more closely reposition back to proper belt tension afterward.
92 Accord LX - How do you get the Alternator out?
The power steering pump and the alternator are mounted in the same way, they have a pivot bolt (like older cars) and a bolt that holds the position adjustment for proper belt tension, but Accords also have a third bolt that sets the adjustment, instead of holding it by hand while the mount bolts are tightened. Start here: Disconnect the high pressure power steering hose from the top. Leave the lower connected so as not to lose the fluid. Remove the nut on the under side of the power steering pump. Loosen the pivot bolt on top of the pump. Use a 10mm socket to loosen the adjustment screw, then remove the bolt from the tab that holds it. The pump should now be loose enough to push it down and to remove the belt. Remove the bolts and adjuster to move the pump out of the way enough to access the alternator. Remove the belt from the alternator the same way. Disconnect the battery, and wires to the alternator. Remove the bolts and adjusters and remove the alternator.
