You don't. The pulley is pretensioned by the manufacturer. If the belt tension is incorrect, the pulley must be replaced.

You don't. If it has stretched too much for the tensioner pulley to handle, you need a new belt. Or, if the tensioner pulley is not applying correct tension, the tensioner pulley must be replaced.


How do you adjust the tension on a serpentine belt on a dodge Dakota 2002?

You don't. The serpentine belt tension is automatically maintained by the tensioner pulley, which is an idler pulley located on the passenger side of the system and looks like it doesn't drive anything. If the belt tension is incorrect, the tensioner pulley must be replaced. If the question meant 'how to release tension from the belt' (for removal, etc.), this is done by applying the correct size socket wrench to the tensioner pulley's center nut and rocking the pulley away from the belt.

How do you adjust the serpentine belt on a 2003 Dodge Dakota extended cab?

You don't. It employs a spring loaded automatic belt tensioner pulley located usually on the passenger side of the engine. If your serpentine belt is too loose, either the tensioner pulley has failed (possible, but unlikely) or the belt has stretched beyond the limits of the tensioner pulley and needs to be replaced (more likely).
