Has anyone changed this belt yet? I was driving today, and the damn thing broke... car overheated, but I stopped before it got too hot. Water was boiling in the catch can. Anyways... the damn belt broke and wrapped around the waterpump pully. It was a bitch to get off. Then I went to put the new belt on, but could not find the bold on the alternator, so I could move it to put the belt over. I loosened the top adjustment, but there is another bolt somewhere. Anyone know where it is? I need help!!!

Thanks!
Dave

Yup, bolt on the bottom w/ a 14mm head. Head is facing the drivers side. I can reach behind the intake and get it w/ a 14mm short socket and flex handle ratchet. Loosen that and use the adjuster and you will be all set.
