sepentine belt

[mark]

I belive thats what its called.

I'm a bit embarrassed to be asking this cos its not a huge problem :)
but does anyone know which of the many wheels and gizmos this belt incorporates has a slacken off bit for removal puposes?

From memory there is an idler wheel on the end of an arm which is spring loaded, lever this arm then take the belt off, re-fitting is just a reverse of this

Cheers!
yep you were right
What a fantastic tensioning method!
save all that f in about with the sliders and levers and bolts :)

i would take the opportunety to change the cam belt at the same time and that entire sprung loaded arm comes off with just 3 bolts behind it. after all if you need to change that belt i would certainly remove the cam belt cover and inspect the cam belt beneath (since it is cheaper that the serpentine belt and you are already half way there).
