Damn, I was feeling so good earlier today. I have never done brakes before on any car, and I went ahead and did that, including replacing the discs and two broken lug bolts. But it went down hill after that. My alternator drive belt broke last week, so I had to do it. I can not figure out the drive belts. First of all, I didn't have access for my fat hands, so I pulled the fan and fan shroud. Now, I can reach the alternator belt adjustment, but I have no idea how to move the alternator. I have loosened the bolt and cranked the "adjustment bolt" both ways but I get no movement. So, after about an hour of pain and suffering, I threw in the towel for tonight. So, how do I move that damned alternator? And, once I can actually move that, how do I loosen the power steering pump? And once I figure that out, how do I adjust the lower pulley to adjust the ac belt? I feel like such a moron like I am missing something, but I can't figure this out. I know someone can slap me into figuring this out! Please!
