Hey guys I know i may seem stupid but I cant get my belt back on it drives the alt and a/c etc. I have the tensioner all the way out but im not coming close to getting it under. I dont know if there is a trick or not any help would be appreciated, or else I might get out the gas and start a fire and forget about it.
 
Well that does'nt make any sense. Since you replaced the alterantor make sure it is mounted properly first. Another thing that could be a possability is the parts store gave you the wrong alternator that has a bigger pulley on it, check that as well. Otherwise you may be routing the belt wrong. Those are about the only things it could be.
 
well i just f-up the tensioner when i was pulling it back it snaped forward and is now all the way in and i took it off but can't get it back on because the pully is hitting the altenator. I pretty sure i just wasnt pulling back all the way. do I have to get a new tensioner or can I some how get this to work.
