yo, can anyone tell me where the two belt tensioners should be tightened up to, cos i`ve got a noise that sounds like a balt slipping or whining and i need to check everythings ok.
Power steering belt should have have a maximum of 6-7mm deflection (3.5-4.5 when new, 4-5 after adjustment) at a point halfway between the p/s pulley and the water pump pulley when applying a force of 22lbs to the belt
Alternator belt should have a maximum deflection of 11.5-13mm (6.5-8 when new, 7-9 when adjusted) at a point half way between the (top of the)crank pulley and the (top of the )alternator pulley. These are combined measurements for with/without aircon so stick in the middle and you'll be fine.
