To replace the spring-loaded belt tensioner on a 3.8L V6 Mustang, first, ensure the engine is off and cool. Use a ratchet and socket to relieve tension on the tensioner by rotating it counterclockwise, then slide the serpentine belt off. Remove the mounting bolts for the tensioner and take it out. Install the new tensioner by reversing the process, ensuring the belt is properly routed before finally releasing tension on the new tensioner.

Most likely though the tensioner can be locked up due to corrosion inside the bushing /bearing area. In that case buy a new tensioner before performing the belt change. Napa by me has the tensioner for about $30.
