HOW DO YOU LOOSEN THE DRIVE BELT?

1 Answer

365

I will try and snap a picture (picture tells 1000 words) but you can put a socket on one of the pulleys which is on the left hand-middle section of the engine (i.e. if you are standing in front of the car facing the engine). With the socket and a long handle ratchet attached to the socket, you can move the pulley which loosens the belt. Let me take a picture of exactly where it is, so you do not potentially injure yourself or damage something.
