Inspection
1. Check the drive belt for wear, cracks and fraying. Replace
if necessary.
2. Verify the drive belt is correctly mounted on the pulleys.
Adjustment
No adjustment is necessary. The 4.OL engine is
equipped with an automatic tensioner that indicates
when the drive belt is worn (stretched). A pointer
and gauge are built into the tensioner. When the
pointer no longer registers within the range limits of
the gauge, the belt must be replaced.
