Help with belts please
I have an 88 Ford f250 with a 7.3 and I need to change the alternator belt. However the problem is that it's at the back, I need to know how to release the tension on the ac belt that's at the front so I can get to it.
This is also my first diesel truck.
Any help would be appreciated
