Question
How do you replace the serpentine belt? Can a mechanically challenged man handle it. Please, give me the replacement for dummies answer.

Thanks

Answer
Under the hood should be a diagram of the belt, this is your best reference without the service manual. All you have to determine is which direction to rotate the belt tensioner, then put the belt back on as shown in the diagram.

Your belt replacement for dummies answer: take it to the shop, have some poor starving mechanic change the belt, usually about one half hour is the labor charge at most shops.
