Serpentine Belts
A serpentine belt is a single, continuous belt utilized in driving devices – such as power steering pump, alternator and others – in an automotive engine. First used by Mercedes-Benz, the belt is more efficient than the older multiple belt system.

How do you bypass the air conditioner compressor with the serpentine belt on a 1991 Ford Escort?
You'll probably need to buy three belts and take two back before you get it right. Take a piece of string, hold the end exactly where the belt leaves the pulley before the compressor, follow the same path the belt does around the compressor and on to the next pulley where you want to mark the string where it meets the pulley. Take the measurement of the string, subtract it from the overall length of the old belt (with AC) and that will give a pretty good idea of how long a belt you need to bypass the compressor. Buy that one and another two (slightly smaller and slightly bigger because it's important to have roughly the proper amount of tension on the belt.
- jwko - you can also remove the a/c compressor and get a belt that is for your application without a/c
The routing protocol also specifies how routers in a network share information with each other and report changes. The routing protocol enables a network to make dynamic adjustments to its conditions, so routing decisions do not have to be predetermined and static.

How do you change the serpentine belt in a 1994 Chevy Corsica?
If I am not mistaken, one would find a diagram of the belt's pulley system pasted on a sticker in the engine compartment usually either on the top pulley or next to the hood release in front of the radiator. If not, one should notice grooved surfaces for the pulleys that come in contact with the inside of the belt, and smooth surfaces for the outside. TO REMOVE/INSTALL, find the pulley attached to a spring-loaded arm. This pulley releases the tension on the belt by using a wrench(crescent works best) placed on the center bolt which will not turn but instead will help move that spring-loaded arm. .
Also instead of using the wrench on the bolt itself on the end of the idler bracket (there is a square end near the radiator) you will have lots more leverage to work with but one of the drawbacks is that it is a little difficult to do this by ones self.
Most cars and trucks today have what is called a serpentine belt which runs most accessories.They are very dependable and usually easy to replace. To decide if your belt needs replacing, simply look at the grooved side of the belt to see if it is cracking badly. A couple of cracks every 3 inches is normal, but if you see cracks every 1-2 inches I would recommend that you replace it. On most cars and trucks the procedure is basically the same. First off, get the correct belt by bringing your cars VIN number to the parts store(located on your cars dashboard) the parts store may need it. If there are two choices, get them both so you can complete the repair. Once you have the correct belt, take a minute to review how the belt runs across the pulleys and also check to see if your car/ truck has a underhood diagram of belt routing in case you need it. In most cases you will need a socket wrench or breaker bar with either a 3/8" and /or 1/2" head on it and possibly a short extension. Some models may require a wrench of these similar sizes.Now that you are ready to go to work, you will need to find the spring loaded tensioner which is generally located near the top of the belt path; it usually has a shinny pulley on it. Look at the tensioner and insert the tool into it and apply opposing pressure to release the belt.Now, simply install the new belt making sure it fits into the grooves on all the pulleys. Start the car to check it and you are done and you saved yourself some money!

How to you change serpentine belt on a 2003 Chevrolet Tracker?
This is very simple and take 5 minutes. First draw on a piece of paper, the way it's install on your truck than take your ratchet with the 14mm box.
Look at the wheel at the right of the alternator and the power steering, turn the center bolt of that wheel clockwise and it's going to depress the belt. Take it off and pass by the back of the radiator fan and up it's off. To put the new one($18.00) pass the belt the same way following the shema you draw on the paper and when it's o.k. turn the pressure wheel unclockwise to put pressure on the belt. That's it!

How do you install a drive belt on a 1999 Saab 93 convertible with turbo?
http://photo.platonoff.com/Auto/20040929.Saab_9-5_serpentine_belt/
This site is pretty http://photo.platonoff.com/Auto/20040929.Saab_9-5_serpentine_belt/
I found this to be the best for my 1999 9-5, should be the same for the 9-3 turbo.
A couple of things I found:
The replacement SAAB belt is shorter, missing out the centre pulley. I have actually fitted both and I found that the original lenghth 2601 (I believe) was easier to fit. With the tensioner pulled forward or compressed it was easier to push the belt down in the centre onto the centre pulley. I had to go for an after market belt to get the length.
I also found that using the half inch socket extension rod to compress the tensioner was difficult as the brake reservoir got in the way. I used a half inch socket speed brace instead and the shape of the brace fit nicely around the reservoir.
As described in the mentioned web-site you have to remove the engine mount and wheel but don't be put off, simple job that my mum could do.
Lastly - check pulley's to make sure they are running smooth or you may find that you trash another belt like I did.
How do you change a Serpentine belt on a 2000 Suzuki Vitara with a 2 liter engine?
It's not so hard. Open the bonnet and face the engine. Note the routing of the belt, draw it if you won't remember.
There will be a smooth (no grooves) pulley towards the top middle. Below this to the left is another smooth pulley. The belt should run over (on top of) this one. It is the belt tensioner. To loosen the belt, place a wrench or socket at the 12 o'clock position and turn it clockwise about a quarter turn. This moves the tensioner pulley down away from the belt, loosening the belt. Remove the belt. If the belt is not broken, remove it by working it carefully around and below the radiator fan, between the fan and radiator.
To put the new belt on work it around the fan in the same way. Route the belt over all the pulleys except the tensioner (using memory or the drawing you made earlier). Again loosen the tensioner using the wrench or socket and slip the new belt over the tensioner pulley. Check the tension.
What happens if your belts are slipping?
Spray the belt with belt dressing, tighten it up, or buy a new belt.
No. A vector is actually a first order tensor as opposed to all tensors being vectors (vector quantities could be considered a subset of the set of all tensor quantities) because if you were to take a vector in three spatial dimensions A it can be defined by the equation A=A1e1+A2e2+A3e3 and also follows the tensor transformation laws given by A'i=αi'kAk for instance. Tensors however are actually more generalised objects which include vectors, scalars (zeroth order tensors) and more complicated systems.
