I actually want to replace the alternator belt and it off the pulley.. But!
The P/S belt is in front of it. I loose up the adjustor and nothing moves.
So! Where is/are the other bolt(s) I'm suppose to get at? North American
model, if it matters.
I try to buy a Haynes manual, but in my town right now, no parts store carry
this model.

Thanks

Timmy

You have to loosen the mounting nuts and bolts that hold the P/S unit to
the engine, so that it can swivel and take the tension off the belt.

I tried to look around for those bolts. No success so far. It's pretty
crowded on this side of the engine.

Any link with a pic you might have?

Thanks

Nope. That's they way they all are mounted. If you can't see them up
top, then you'll have to get underneath.
I just changed all three belts on my 97 Nissan 4x4 PU, but the 4
cylinder engine is in-line and all the belts are in front and reachable
from up top.
