GENERATOR/WATER PUMP DRIVE BELT
BELT TENSION INSPECTION
1) Inspect belt cracks, cuts, deformation, wear and cleanliness.
2) Check belt for tension. Belt is in proper tension when it deflects
6 to 8 mm (0.24 – 0.31 in.) under thumb pressure (1) (about 10
kg or 22 lb.).
Belt tension “a” : 6 – 8 mm (0.24 – 0.31 in.) as deflection
NOTE:
When replacing belt with a new one, adjust belt tension to
5 – 7 mm (0.20 – 0.28 in.).
3) If belt is too tight or too loose, loosen adjusting bolt (2) and pivot
bolt (3) and adjust it to proper tension by displacing generator
(4) position.
4) Tighten generator adjusting bolt and pivot bolt.
Tightening Torque
(a): 22 N·m (2.2 kg-m, 16.0 lb-ft)
(b): 50 N·m (5.0 kg-m, 36.5 lb-ft)
5) Connect negative cable at battery terminal.
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Loosen generator adjusting bolt (1) and generator pivot bolt (2).
When servicing vehicle equipped with A/C, remove A/C com-
pressor drive belt before removing generator/water pump drive
belt (3).
3) Slacken belt by displacing generator and then remove it.
INSTALLATION
1) Install belt to water pump pulley, crankshaft pulley and genera-
tor pulley.
When servicing vehicle equipped with A/C, install A/C compres-
sor drive belt, too.
2) Adjust belt tension.
For adjustment of A/C compressor drive belt tension, refer to
SECTION 0B.
3) Tighten generator adjusting bolt and pivot bolts.
4) Connect negative cable at battery.
