Step 2: Locate the belt routing diagram, which is usually located near the radiator, on the UNDERSIDE of the hood, or in the owner's manual.
Step 3: Turn the 15mm bolt (1) on the belt pulley (near the radiator) COUNTER CLOCKWISE. You need to loosen this pulley a FEW turns to release some of the tension on the belt.
NOTE: You may need to use a second wrench to add leverage, as the space is a little cramped.
Step 4: Loosen the 13mm belt tensioner bolt (1) using the ratchet with a long extension.
Step 5: Once the tension is released from the belt, you can remove it from the vehicle.
Step 6: Using the routing diagram we found in Step 2, route the belt around the proper pulleys.
Step 7: Once the belt is in place, tighten the 13mm belt tensioner bolt (1).
NOTE: The belt should be taut, but not overly tight or stretched!
Step 8: Tighten the 15mm bolt (1) to complete the tensioning of the belt.
