Belt tensioner

[ViperPete]

How do I loosen the serpentine belt tensioner so I can install my UDP?


Thanks.

I use a 15mm box end wrench and double wrench it, it's just below your alternator.

You'll insert a 15 mm socket/box end wrench onto nut holding tensioner on. You'll exert pressure down I believe and you notice tensioner loosen belt. It'll return much resistance so ensure your wrench/socket is on nut good so you don't slip. No busted knuckles today. You didn't get my pulley did you? :dontknow:

Nah, guessing not as mine has instructions. :burnout:

I figured that's how to get is to move, there is just so little room between the fan and the engine. I hate the factory fan. I'm gonna get Tonys's electric fan setup when I can.

No I got a used UDP for $50 with a new belt. That's a hell of a deal.

Can't go wrong there!

Hmmm. I don't know. I have to take a closer look. Might be.

Why?

Just saw it for sale awhile back. Is it mine?

I'll have to look at it to see if it has any markings.
