NSX V6-3.2L DOHC (2001)
Drive Belt: Adjustments
Deflection Method:
Alternator Belt Adjustment
1. Apply a force of 98 N (10 kgf, 22 lbf) between the alternator and crankshaft pulley, and measure its deflection.
Deflection: 11-13.5 mm (0.43-0.53 in)
NOTE: On a brand-new belt, the deflection should be 6-8 mm (0.24-0.31 in) before the belt has had any running time on the engine.
2. If belt deflection is incorrect, loosen the adjustment-lock nut and the mounting bolt.
3. Turn the adjusting bolt until belt deflection is correct, then retighten the nut and bolt.
4. Recheck the belt tension.
Tension Gauge Method:
Alternator Belt Adjustment
1. Attach the belt tension gauge to the belt, and measure belt tension.
