DIESEL ENGINE BELTS
The alternator/water pump/fan belt is automatically
tightened. No manual adjustment is required. See
installation procedure at right.
NOTE: When installing new compressor belt (G),
never pry belt over pulley. Loosen necessary
hardware and adjust belt tension. Re-adjust
tension of a new belt after a short run-in period.
(About 5 hours.)
To adjust compressor belt:
1. Loosen compressor mounting hardware.
2. Adjust tension so that a force of 8 to 12 lbs. (35
to 55 N) deflects belt 3/16 inch (5 mm) at mid-
span.
3. Tighten compressor mounting hardware and
recheck tension.
A - Air Conditioning Compressor
B - Alternator
C - Water Pump

NOTE: For easiest installation of new belt (H):
Install around pulleys (E), (D), and (B), then raise
