I found it much much easier to take the passenger side motor mount out, supporting the engine with a floor jack and do it from the top. That way you can jack the engine up and down, remove the water pump pulley completely for unneeded access, and you don’t have to remove the crank pulley. Plus, it makes putting the belt on a breeze.

Hmm, seems not too bad a job

How did you get the serpentine belt back on? Every video shows the after effect.

@maxsmoviechannel2025 Жыл бұрын

The best way is to route the belt from the bottom, get the belt onto each pulley but do the waterpump (the big non-grooved) pulley last. It’s still a mission…. Watching this video again, I realize I did the alternator pulley last, but the other way is easier

Do you really must install the belt tensioner when replacing the serpentine belt ? Looks hard and to much work ahhhhh

I replaced the tensioner for a whining noise, but if you just want to change the belt you can.

what did you torque the crack pulley to?

@maxsmoviechannel2025 Жыл бұрын

No real torque spec, just use a regular 19 socket (not the thick one we used to take it off) and gun it down nicely.

Why can't balancer be removed with regular 19mm socket ?

@maxsmoviechannel2025 Жыл бұрын

Good question. In theory you CAN take it off with a regular 19. But the special socket is MUCH thicker and built for that. Less chance of breaking a socket

Anytime my friend and good luck! Remember the trickiest part is the water pump pulley. You can’t get it out fully. So find a bolt that can hold the pulley while you break the bolts loose with a ratchet. Also when removing just tuck the pulley up and to the left, it will stay pretty good in that position if you get it right
