To adjust the tension on the Power Steering belt of a 1979 Silverado, first, locate the power steering pump and loosen the mounting bolts that secure it. Then, gently push the pump toward the engine to increase tension on the belt. Once the desired tension is achieved—typically about half an inch of deflection when pressed in the middle—tighten the mounting bolts securely. Finally, check the tension again to ensure it remains correct.
