To adjust the fan belt on a 1987 Volvo 240 DL, first locate the alternator, which is typically where the belt adjustment occurs. Loosen the bolts on the alternator bracket to allow it to pivot. Then, manually push the alternator toward the engine to increase tension on the belt until it has about 1/2 inch of play when pressed down in the center. Finally, tighten the bolts back to secure the alternator in place.
