pull the tensioner to relieve the tension and slip the belt over the alternator pulley. The tensioner is a spring-loaded pulley below the alternator. The tensioner takes a special tool that fits into a square hole in the side of it. Or you can use an 18 mm socket on the tensioner's pulley bolt. Follow the decal near the right front corner of the engine compartment to route the new belt.

How do you replace the serpentine belt on a 1999 Buick Regal?
Best to get a shop manual for this operation, if you have not replaced it before. Usually there is an "Idler Pulley" on many late model cars that is "spring loaded". You "Bias" this pulley using the big nut in the middle of the pulley (usually with a socket wrench) so that the serpentine belt has enough slack in it so you can remove it. Install new belt by reverse procedure. TommyTrouble
