ok, i was changeing dead alternator to new one and i can't put the belt on.

i tried hard as i can to put the belt on to the pully on alternator but couldn't do it.

tried couple way like unbolt one bolt that hold the alternator and put belt on then tighten the bolt. couldn't do it.

then when i was taking out the alternator, i made a hole on the radiator and it's leaking.
how much it will cost to buy new one?


some body help me, please!!!

 

not sure consult www.acuraautomotiveparts.org

for the price of the thing... perhaps you need to take off the pulley and then put it back on once you got the belt on to it?

you need to release the tension on the belt by using an open ended wrench on the belt tensioner

put the wrench on it and push towards the back of the car and then the belt will slip right on

 

look for dustbuster's instructions if you dont know where the tensioner is, its kinda hard to explain, but it is obvious cause theres a pulley looking thing that isnt driving anything.

 

or take hobo's advice... lol... i was shooting blindly.

 

is the tensioner right under the Alternator or pully that locate left that has smooth serface?

 

what motor 2.2,2.3, or 3.0? their completely different.

 

be careful releasing tension using the bolt. cause it could come loose and ull be missing skin on ur knuckles. so first make sure it is very tight.

 

 

i have 98 3.0.

thanks for you guy's info.
