Installation

1. Check condition of all pulleys.
CAUTION: When installing the accessory drive belt, the belt MUST be routed correctly. If not, the engine may overheat due to the water
pump rotating in the wrong direction.
2. Route belt around all pulleys except the idler pulley (1). Rotate the tensioner arm clockwise until it contacts its stop position. Route the belt
around the idler and slowly let the tensioner rotate into the belt. Make sure the belt is seated onto all pulleys.
