Installation Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Important:  Make sure that the drive belt is aligned into the proper grooves of the accessory drive belt pulleys.

  1. Install the drive belt under the drive belt tensioner pulley by lifting or rotating the drive belt tensioner, using a 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch breaker bar.
  2. Inspect the drive belt and the drive belt system.
  3. Make sure that the drive belt is properly routed.
  4. Inspect the drive belt length scale on the drive belt tensioner for the proper installed length.
