For 1990-2009 cars

### Drive Belt Inspection

1. Inspect the drive belt for cracks, cuts, wear and damage. Replace the belt if any cracks, cuts, wear or damage exist.
2. If any sections of the belt ribs are missing, replace the belt.
3. Inspect the belt for proper alignment on the pulleys.
4. If the drive belt is improperly aligned, align the drive belt.

### Power Steering Pump Drive Belt Removal Procedure

1. Loosen the power steering pump mounting bolts.
2. Pivot the power steering pump towards the engine in order to relieve the tension on the belt.
3. Remove the power steering pump drive belt (1) from the pulleys.

### Power Steering Pump Drive Belt Installation Procedure

1. Properly route and install the power steering pump drive belt (1) on the power steering pump and the crankshaft pulleys.
2. Adjust the power steering pump drive belt to obtain 6-9 mm (0.24-0.35 in) deflection with 10 kg (22 lbs (thumb pressure) of force applied.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Tighten
Tighten the power steering pump mounting bolts to 30 N·m (22 lb ft).

### A/C Compressor Drive Belt Removal Procedure

1. Loosen the A/C compressor mounting bolts.
2. Pivot the A/C compressor towards the engine in order to relieve the tension on the belt.
3. Remove the A/C compressor drive belt (1) from the pulleys.

### A/C Compressor Drive Belt Installation Procedure

1. Properly route and install the A/C compressor drive belt (1) on the A/C compressor, the power steering (if equipped), and the crankshaft pulleys.
2. Adjust the A/C compressor drive belt to obtain 6-9 mm (0.24-0.35 in) deflection with 10 kg (22 lbs (thumb pressure) of force applied.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Tighten
Tighten the A/C compressor mounting bolts to 18-28 N·m (13-20 lb ft).

### Generator Drive Belt Removal Procedure

1. Remove the power steering pump and the A/C compressor drive belt.
2. Loosen the generator mounting bolts.
3. Pivot the generator towards the engine and remove the accessory drive belt.

### Generator Drive Belt Installation Procedure

1. Properly route and install the generator drive belt on the pulleys.
2. Adjust the drive belt tension to obtain the specified deflection with 10 kg (22 lbs) (thumb pressure) of force applied.

Used Belt Deflection
6-8 mm (0.24-0.31 in)

New Belt Deflection
5-7 mm (0.20-0.27 in)

3. Tighten the generator mounting bolts.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Tighten
Tighten the generator mounting bolts to 33 N·m (24 lb ft).

4. Install the power steering and the A/C compressor drive belt.
