How do you replace the alternator on a 1997 Chevy Malibu?

It depends on what model you have, but most are the same.Disconnect the battery! Loosen the tensioner for the serpentine belt and pull the belt off the alternator pulley. Remove the bolt holding the alternator at the 4:00 o'clock positionRemove the nut at the right rear side of the alternatorRemove the bolt at the next to it nearer you. All bolts have 15mm heads, but you're going to need a deep well socket to get the nut off. Pull out the alternator and remove the plug from it and also remove the red wire attached to the back. You're going to need a 13mm socket and a 13mm flat wrench. Replace the alternator by reversing the steps above. Reattaching the serpentine belt is a pain.

Use the spacers to change the pulley configuration. The alternator pulley halves separates when you remove the large retaining nut at the center. More spacers between the pulley halves loosens the belt. Fewer spacers between the pulley halves TIGHTEN the belt. Keep the extra spacers under the large washer so you'll have them to adjust the NEXT belt.

There are two bolts one is visible on the front and one on the rear. There is a nut on the right side next to the ground on the alternator. once it, the ground, and the molex plug are removed it pops right out. One key thing to remember when putting it back on is to be sure to put the belt on before you put the bolts back in, or you have to mess with the tension pulley.
