Alternator Adjustment
Shims may be used to facilitate alignment during
alternator installation. Use adjustment strap and
eye bolt to ensure belt tension reading is between
55 to 60 on TK gauge.
NOTE: It is critical that the belt
be correctly seated in pulley. First
and last edge of grooves are
higher to improve seating of
belts.
