on the front of the tensioner pulley there will be an arrow than will say loosen. find the right sized socket to fit the bolt in the middle of the pulley. bigger the better for the leverage. it does have alot of tension on it. you need to turn your ratchet the dirrection of the arrow and the drive belt will loosen. slip the belt off the pulley and slowly release the pulley until it stops . there are only usually three mounting bolts on the back of the pulley frame. keep track of the size of the bolts. some may be longer than others. just reverse the order to put it back on.

Where is the tension pulley on a 1999 Ford Escort?

AnswerI have a 98 escort so I believe that they are probably similar. The top pulley where the serpentine belt is has a little square in it so that you can stick a ratchet in and turn and the tension is released. Quite simply once you find the little square. Then pull the breaker bar, or what you have inserted into the pulley, TOWARDS you to loosen the tension and then remove the serpentine belt. There should be a diagram up inside the hood to show you the way you're supposed to put a new one back on.


How do you change the serpentine belt on a 1999 Isuzu trooper?

pretty easily. 1st draw a picture of how the old one goes on. Next find the spring loaded tension pulley and put a big wrench on it and lean. Your weight will compress to spring and the tension will come off the belt. It helps to have a second pair of hands. When the tension is off have the second pair of hands remove the old belt. weave the new belt through the pulleys and compress the tension pulley and your done.

tension pullys have a small square in the side that a rachet will fit in.. they are "spring loaded" and if you put a ratchet in it you should be able to pull it back with ease and remove the belt hope this helps
