I was going to change my serpentine belt on my 2000 neon the other day and i cant see how you loosen up the belt tensioner.... anyone know what tool I need to loosen the belt. Usually its just a socket but i cant see a bolt.

 

anyone

 

wait for 03neonRT's help!!!!

 

Get a 17mm wrench and slide it over the top of the tensioner, there will be a little metal nub sticking up on it, once you have the wrench on the nub securely, simply pull the wrench foward, then with your other hand you should be able to slide the belt free.
