General Information

Worn or loose drive belts may cause premature pulley bearing failure or engine overheating. Too much or too little tension on the belt may result in excessive or premature belt wear. Replace the engine drive belt if any conditions described under Visual Inspection are found.

Visually inspect all drive belts, then perform the belt tension inspection. To inspect a belt, gently twist the belt to view the belt sidewalls and the underside of the belt. When replacing a matched set of belts, always replace both belts at the same time. Matched belts must be from the same manufacturer.
