Hi, today a belt broke and took another with it. After I cut all the tangled remains off I decided to cut the last one (the a/c) off. Bought new belts now trying to get them on. Have a couple of questions. I have loosened the two bolts on the alternator but it won't budge. Haynes says "earlier models might require prybar" Any suggestions on how to move the alternator? Next, where is the tensioner for the A/C? I don't seem to be able to locate it. Any advice on how to complete this job appreciated! Thanks!

Making Progress - Need Help With Bolt Size
It looks like I need to take off the front metal engine cover "Engine Under Cover" in order to get to the compressor and alternator. Can someone tell me what size bolts are on there (3 in the front and 2 in the back)? Every socket in my set seems to want to slip off. I think once I get that off, I will be OK. Thank you!
