The tension of drivebelts in earlier models is checked by pushing on the belt at a distance halfway between the pulleys.

The serpentine drivebelt plays a crucial role in the operation of the engine and its components. It drives the alternator, power steering pump, water pump, and air conditioning compressor (if equipped).

The tension of the accessory drive belts can be assessed using the rule of thumb or tension gauge method.

To replace the belt, lift the tensioner at the bolt. The tensioner will swing down once the tension of the belt is released. Remove the belt from the auxiliary components and carefully release the tensioner. Route the new belt over the various pulleys, again rotating the tensioner to allow the belt to be installed, then release the belt tensioner. Ensure the belt fits properly into the pulley grooves - it must be completely engaged. Most models have a drivebelt routing decal on the upper radiator panel to help during drivebelt installation.

The condition of drivebelts can be checked by looking for cracks, separation of belt plies, fraying, and glazing. For serpentine belts, the ribs on the underside of the belt should also be checked.

The number of belts used on a vehicle depends on the accessories installed.
