Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Ensure the engine is off and cool, and disconnect the battery's negative terminal.
2. Locate the Belt: Identify the serpentine belt and its routing path around the pulleys. It's helpful to take a picture or find a diagram for your specific engine model.
3. Release Tension: Locate the automatic belt tensioner. Use a socket or belt tensioner tool to rotate the tensioner, releasing the pressure on the belt.
4. Remove Old Belt: While the tension is released, carefully slide the old belt off the pulleys.
5. Inspect Pulleys: Before installing the new belt, check all pulleys for wobble, damage, or seizure. Spin them by hand to ensure they rotate smoothly.
6. Install New Belt: Following your diagram or photo, route the new belt around the pulleys, saving the tensioner pulley for last.
7. Apply Tension: Slowly release the tensioner back to its original position to apply tension to the new belt. Ensure the belt is properly seated in all pulley grooves.
8. Final Check: Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and listen for any unusual noises. Let it run for a minute to confirm the belt is tracking correctly.
