Replacing belt

To remove tension from idler pulley, locate 17mm tensioner bolt located on tensioner bracket (see photo below). Belt obstructs the view so it has to be found by feel. After locating 17mm bolt, push down the bar counter-clockwise (see photo below). When putting the belt back on, it is easier to leave the last part of the belt to slide over the water pump pulley as it has no lip or grooves.
