With the fan off this is easy -- loosen 19mm bolt right beside the PS pump pulley, crank the tensioner down, slip belt off.
With the fan on this is almost impossible.
Fan is easy, too. Unclip shroud and pull up, then lean back over the fan. Bend a 45 degree elbow on the the end of a piece of coat hanger wire. Slip down between the "bumps" on the fan bearing, insert 8mm Allen into the center bolt on the visco clutch, turn until you get the wire into one of the holes on the clutch, loosen bolt. Remove bolt and fan, then shroud. Makes the job so much easier.
