Chrysler Repair: 1994 Chrysler serpintine belt routing, serpintine belt, crankshaft pulley


Question
my son drove my 1994 3.0L V6 through some puddles and popped the belt. I do not know the routing of the belt. Can you help me?

Answer
Hi Paul,
The path of pulleys around which the belt goes (beginning with the crankshaft pulley, and moving clockwise around the array of pulleys) is in this order:
tensioner pulley (belt goes around the pulley counter-clockwise)
power steering pulley (belt goes...clockwise)
alternator (belt...clockwise)
idler pulley (belt going under the pulley)
and back to the crank pulley (belt...clockwise).
Sorry I don't have a scanner but this should serve the purpose, I hope. To get enough slack to install the belt rotate the arm that holds the tensioner pully clockwise against the spring tension.
