The belt tension should adjust automatically. There's a thing called a belt tensioner that has a strong spring in it (you can't see the spring) that keeps pressure applied to the belt. This belt tensioner is what makes the serpentine belt so hard to remove. Many times the tensioner is in a difficult place access.
To loosen the tension on a serpentine belt on a 2005 Grand Caravan 3.8L, turn the nut of the belt tension pulley to loosen it. Adjust the belt, then tighten the tension pulley by turning the nut in the opposite direction.
What did unhook or break while you were under the hood ?
It provides the proper tension on the serpentine belt so as it is not too tight or too loose.
i have a 98' Pontiac grand prix gtp. i got the 2 serpentine belts replaced for $200.
On a 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a 5.2 V8 engine, the serpentine belt tensioner is located on the front of the engine, near the center. It is typically positioned above the crankshaft pulley and to the right of the alternator. The tensioner is a pulley mounted on a spring-loaded arm, which maintains tension on the serpentine belt. To adjust or replace it, you may need to use a wrench to relieve tension before removing the belt.
Absoultly not.
call the Pontiac delearship or sometimes find them in the owner manuals
I have a 2000 pontiac grand am gt 3.4 auto trans with rear disc brakes how do i adjust the emergy brakes no adjustment under car how is is done?
The serpentine belt can be removed by using a rachet/socket and turning the spring loaded tension pulley clockwise. Reverse the order to install the new one. (The pulley should be somewhere in the top/middle section of the drive area.
