Tension accessory belt

[veganbutcher]

Just re-installed the power steering pump and it needs to be tensioned. Does anyone have a diagram showing where the tensioner pulley is? Also whats a good way of making sure you have the correct tension without a calibration tool.

There are no tensioner pulleys for the PS. There are slots where the ps pump bolts to the bracket. 1/4 movement of the belt is plenty of tension.

Welp, I stripped the top bolt /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif

Time for another ps pump.

There are two top bolts. You can probably get away with only using the one that's not stripped. Maybe...

Crap, I lied. There aren't two upper bolts, there are only two lower bolts. Sorry.

Time to delete Power Steering lol.

Quoting turbowop:

Lol that's what I thought, I was also considering using a nut on the other end of the PS pump but there isn't enough clearance for that.
