  1. Remove the radiator condenser tank mounting bolts.
  2. Move the radiator condenser tank to a place where it will not be a hindrance when checking the drive belt tension.
    CAUTION: Check the drive belt tension after turning the crankshaft clockwise one turn or more.
  3. Make sure that the indicator mark on the auto-tensioner is within the area marked with A in the illustration.
  4. If the mark is out of the area, replace the drive belt. (Refer to CRANKSHAFT PULLEY REMOVAL INSTALLATION <4B11>, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION <4B12>).
