Drive Belt: Adjustments
Drive Belt, A/C

Compressor Belt Tension

Jaguar belt driven components have threaded adjusting rods with opposing nuts to allow for precise belt adjustment.  Loosen outer nut and adjust
opposite nut to give compressor belt tension that allows belt deflection of 0.17 in (4.32 mm) when a pressure of 6.4 lb (2.9 kg) is applied at mid-point
of belt.
