You didnt say what engine your GA has, if its the 2.2 ecotec its on the left side of the engine. Good luck looseining the bolt on it, its near impossible to get to it with any sort of wrench. I just put a jack underneath with a bar or long stick to reach the tensioner jack it up and it relives tension just enough to get that new belt on. you have to actually put ur bar on the side of the tensioner mount to get it up, having a buddy with a crowbar pull up on the tensioner from under the hood is much easier and faster. But like i said don't even try to get to that bolt
