I got the old belt off and I can't seem to get the new one on. Does the center bolt on the tensioner release tension so I can easliy get the belt back on and then retighten it? Don't wanna mess anything up and then be in a tight spot. Thanks for the advice/help. (This is my first time ever doing this.) |

goes back on the same way ya got it off, have to push it down and get the belt on at the same time that center bolt, the one that isn't on a pully, bolts the tensioner unit to the engine |

well none of the pulleys are moving unless i unbolt them (or they spin freely where they are bolted), not sure how this is gunna work??? Tried lots of different methods to try and get this thing on. I know it isn't smaller than its suppost to be since it is the same size as the belt I got to pop off when I started this project. I'm sure it is easy enough, i just am missing something... |
