First you will need a special serpentine belt tool since you will never be able to fit a regular wrench in the idler tension pulley. Once you have this tool you heave on the pulley enough to release tension from the belt and slip it off the pulleys. Make sure you note how the new belt weaves through the pulleys first, and then reinstall it.

How do you change the tensioner pulley in 2005 Ford Freestar?

To change the tensioner pulley on a 2005 Ford Freestar, first, disconnect the battery to ensure safety. Then, locate the tensioner pulley, typically found near the front of the engine. Use a ratchet and socket to relieve tension on the serpentine belt by turning the tensioner arm, then slide the belt off the pulley. Remove the old tensioner pulley by unbolting it, and install the new pulley by reversing the process, ensuring the belt is properly routed before reapplying tension.
