3. Start the engine (with accessories off) and allow the system to stabilize for 15 seconds. Turn the engine off. Using an 18 mm box end wrench,
apply clockwise force (tighten) to the tensioner pulley bolt. Release the force and immediately take a tension reading without disturbing belt
tensioner position.
4. Using the same wrench, apply a counterclockwise force to the tensioner pulley bolt and raise the pulley to the fully raised position. Slowly lower
the pulley to engage the belt. Take a tension reading without disturbing the belt tensioner position.
5. Average the three readings. If the average of the three readings is lower than 298 N (67 lbs.) and the belt is within the tensioner's operating range,
replace the belt tensioner.
