belt gauge is in the range of 90 pounds
± 5 pounds. Torque the idler pulley
adjustment nut to 120 inch poinds (10 foot pounds).
6. You may find, depending on how much the idler pulley mounting nut was
loosened, that the belt tension increases when the idler pulley mounting nut is
tightened. If so, slightly loosen the idler pulley mounting bolt. Then return to step
5 and set the belt tension on the low side, so that the belt tension is correct when
the idler pulley mounting bolt is torqued to 120 inch pounds.
7. Replace the covers per Procedure 7.1.
