In this video I will show you how to remove and install the serpentine belt and tensioner plus the power steering stretchy belt. This was done on a 2014 3.7L Edge but should be the same procedure for the 3.5L engine. This procedure will also cover the Lincoln MKX. Parts were purchased from Amazon and I will provide links below will also provide links to the rental tools I used.

This is one of the best videos where there are no questions, from lifting the car onto stands and ending with removing belts. Thank you very much. Greetings from the USSR, Kostanay city

I just did this repair on a fusion sport, it took around 5 hours altogether, not for the faint of heart but persistence will win

I really liked the full length video with all of the explanations, not just ‘okay do this’ and cut to it being done. Thank you!

Blue Collar Garage, my brother in law and myself are knocking out some repairs and your video made this job a breeze. We also did the front brake pads (which were super simple) and will be taking on the rear bearings soon. Thank you again for a quality how to video!

P.S.: I would be a little happier if you suddenly released a video about replacing the water pump...)

This procedure works perfectly. Yes, the procedure and part numbers are all the same for the 3.5L engine. Excellent video, thank you! (extra kudos for not blasting music in the background!)

Just additional, Make sure disconnect battery and put car on neutral- for safety purposes. Great and well explained video. Thank you!

I started to install this belt a year ago, and worked on it off and on for 2 months which it seems is when you put this AMAZING VIDEO out so I missed it! Thank you so much for not only a great and easy to see video but your excellent explanation! Thank you thank you!!!

Great info on this video. Helped me a lot. Thanks.

Got the belt from local Ford dealer, came with 2 zip ties and instructions, both zips broke, went to Lowes and purchased zip ties rated for 175 pounds. I can't tell you how helpful this video was and how much it is appreciated. If you were to provide a way to tip, I gladly would. Thank you so much!

Glad I was able to help you out. There is a way to send a tip it’s by the thumbs up icon it says thanks on it. But no worries not a big deal I appreciate the positive feedback.

Great video. Should be noted that this is the same engine in the Mazda CX-9. Thank you.

I've been looking for a good video on how to do this procedure. Your video is great, thanks

The pry bar at the end was critical, mine seemed even tighter and needed to pry against something to get it to move. The tool I borrowed from o'reilly's just needed to be a slightly different angle, as it ran out of room before I could move the tensioner enough. Thanks for this video!

Thank you, without that zip tie trick i wouldnt have been able to move forward because i couldnt seem to use the specialty tools on the stretch belt. Not enough clearance on the P/S pulley and because of the adjacent belts on the crankshaft pulley couldnt do it on that side. If anyone is having trouble with the zip tie use 2 of them, just make sure to try and guide the belt on the crankshaft pulley as straight as possible, itll want to twist a bit. If its on there pretty good itll straighten itself out with a couple of revolutions on the crankshaft pulley

@daimonmarcum4849 4 ай бұрын

Do you have the zip ties on the same spots or on two different holes?

@teammetrofishing1406 4 ай бұрын

@daimonmarcum4849 same spots 1 just wasn't strong enough to withstand the force. Just tie them right next to eachother and don't be afraid to crank it around, it's gonna feel like it doesn't want to go but it will

My belt went over the pulley somehow and was stuck on the inside. No way I could get it out of there, Only thing I could do at that point was cut it off and go buy another.

Thank you buddy I will try that technique with the serpent tomorrow morning

Thanks! I've never encountered a stretch belt! My friend has a 2010 Lincoln MKX with a leaky power steering pump. Looks like it's not so easy to get to!!!!

@user-tx7xt8rw2i 2 ай бұрын

Why didnt you use the green stretch belt tool to install the belt?

@BLUECOLLARGARAGE 2 ай бұрын

I wasn’t able to because it would hit on the subframe as you started to rotate the crankshaft around.

@louh9473 11 ай бұрын

Very well done. Thanks.

@jimprojectgoldwing5536 3 ай бұрын

1 thing to note, recommended to never reuse the stretch belt, if it needs to be removed it should always be replaced.

@DGC-k6m Ай бұрын

And remember, the power steering stretch belt has to go on BEFORE the other belt. Yes, I was that dumb and put the main serpentine belt on first. Don't be dumb like me.

Im trying to do this right now. And im having a hard time. I cant get the zip tie to hold the belt on the pulley. Keeps stripping the zip tie. Did you get the power steering belt started on the bottom of the pulley? And try to roll the belt up on the top of the pulley?

@BLUECOLLARGARAGE 11 ай бұрын

Did you end up getting it on? Yes I got it started at the bottom and just kinda of kept helping it as I turned the crank bolt slowly.

@Grim_GraveyardGaming 11 ай бұрын

Yes I did end up getting the belts on. I had to go buy a heavy duty zip tie that had like rubber on it. That made a big difference holding the belt from slipping on the pulley.

You can use a 1 1/4 wrench for the belt tensioner. The power steering belt is insanely difficult to do by yourself. I have this POS engine on my Mazda. Nothing but problems
