DRIVE BELT
Belt Adjustment
The drive belt does not need adjustment. The belt has a spring loaded idler which constantly maintains the correct belt
tension. The spring loaded idler stop adjustment, detailed below, is critical for long belt life.
Stop Adjustment
See your SERVICE SCHEDULE for the correct interval to check the idler stop adjustment. (See SERVICE SCHEDULE
on Page 106.)
Stop the engine and open the rear door. (See REAR DOOR (TAILGATE) on Page 116.)
