How long will it take to replace a belt tensioner unit and serpentine belt in a lexus 1996 sc300?
Yep
To remove the pulley tensioner on a 1996 Cadillac Eldorado, first, ensure the engine is off and cool. Use a socket wrench to relieve tension on the serpentine belt by rotating the tensioner counterclockwise. Once the tension is released, slide the belt off the pulley. Finally, remove the tensioner by unscrewing its mounting bolts and lifting it off the engine.
you replace the spring tensioner or the belt because there are no adjustments.
your serpentine belt came off probably I just bought a 1996 Eldorado with this same problem. The car won't overheat because there is another belt and tensioner on the other side of the engine for this. Check the belt tensioner the spring probably broke causing the serpentine belt to be loose and fling off.
there is no way to tighten your belt it has an automatic belt tensioner if it is making noise it may be the tensioner or the belt also check to see if it routed correctly
First, remove the coolant tank, then the belt. Unscrew the one bolt holding the tensioner in place. Installation is the reverse...
do you have the schematics of serpentine belt for 1996 Eldorado touring coupe
I think it is the same as my 98 and you put a wrench on the bolt at the center of the tensioner pulley and push away from the belt.
I can send the instructions to you by mail
