serpentine belt tension adjust 1992 2.5L - 9/9/2007 7:00:55 AM    bralex   Posts: 1 Joined: 9/9/2007 Status: offline Trying to help out a friend - she drives a 92 Daytona with the stock 2.5L engine.  She gets a lot of sqealing since having her alternator replaced a few months ago.  Her serpentine belt is a bit loose and I want to adjust the tension for her - I want to make sure I'm looking at the right place to do that.  There's what appears to be an adjusting screw below and to the right of the alternator (facing the car from the front).  My guess is that I should loosen the alternator bolt and adjust this screw to tighten / loosen the serpentine belt.  I'm also going to check the pulley alignment.  Am I on the right track? Thanks for your help, Scott Post #: 1

Loosen the alternator bolts and tighten the adjuster, then tighten the alternator bolts back up. F.Y.I.- there is a belt that runs the alternator and water pump, and a belt that runs power steering. And if she's got A/C, there is a belt that runs that as well- check all these v-belts for adjustment, too. (in reply to bralex) Post #: 2
