FAN/AlTERNATOR BElT
Low belt tension causes slippage resulting in excessive cover wear, burn spots, overheat-
ing, or “slip and grab” causing belt breakage.
High belt tension causes belt heating and excessive stretch, as well as damage to drive
components such as pulleys and shafts. V-belts should ride on the sides of standard pul-
leys not on the bottom of the groove.
Standard V-belt tension can be checked with a tension gauge.
1. Inspect belts for cracks, fraying, or stretched out areas. Replace if necessary.
2. Using tension gauge and straightedge, check tension of warm belts.
– For standard V-belt, an 89 N (20 lb. force) applied halfway between pulleys
should deflect belt by 19 mm (3/4 in.).
3. If adjustment is necessary, loosen alternator bracket cap screw and nut on
mounting bolt. Pull alternator frame outward until belts are correctly
tensioned.
IMPORTANT:
Do not pry against the alternator rear frame. Do not tighten or loosen
belts while they are hot.
4. Tighten alternator bracket cap screw and nut firmly.
5. After a new or used belt has run for 10 minutes recheck belt tension.
