ADJUSTMENTS
Satisfactory performance of the belt driven accesso-
ries depends on proper belt tension. Belt tensioning
should be performed with the aid of Special Tool

partment, the use of this gauge may be restricted.
Raise the vehicle on a hoist and the remove the
splash shield to gain access to the drive belts, if nec-
essary. Adjust belt tension for either a New or Used
belt. For specifications, (Refer to 7 - COOLING/AC-
CESSORY DRIVE - SPECIFICATIONS).
