2000 X serpentine belt change?
Its time, I was just wondering, I tried to rotate the belt tensioner but couldnt get it to move. Is there anything that has to be loosend prior to rotating the tensioner?

Thanks,

Trevor

Just get a long 1/2" breakerbar in there and you have to push fairly hard. You may have been pushing the wrong way too.

Ok...I just didnt want to break anything. I believe it calls for a clockwise rotation.

Thanks for the help.

As long as you fully seat the end of the breaker bar in there, you won't break it haha.
