Answer2.7L
AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR/GENERATOR BELT
Raise vehicle on hoist.
Remove right front wheel and belt splash shield.
Loosen tensioner locking bolt and pivot bolt.
Rotate tensioner clockwise to allow enough slack to remove belt.
POWER STEERING PUMP BELT
Raise vehicle on hoist.
Remove right front wheel and belt splash shield.
Remove the air conditioning compressor/generator belt.
Loosen belt adjusting bolt. It is not necessary to loosen the pivot bolt on the power steering pump. There is a bushing incorporated into the power steering pump/bracket that allows it to pivot.
Remove power steering belt.
