Default $500 Belt
Long story short.

Belt broke on my car, lost power steering, ended up in a ditch. $500 to pull it out. Bought new belt can't find routing guide and can't adjust tensioner. Any thoughts?

don't touch the pivot bolt on the tensioner. there is a square slot centered at the pulley. use a ratchet in the square slot to swing the tensioner back to install the belt. here is a picture of the belt layout.

Thank you. I knew I should'nt have tightened that bolt. I will have to loosen it back and find out the torque spec. Thanks again.
