Serpentine belt tensioner
How do you adjust the belt tensioner on an 86 300e gas motor?
I need to pull the alternator and am having a fit trying to find the tensioner. Any special tools? Alt bearing making noise. Cheers, Steph

Stephaney,
Welcome to the ShopForum. I used the search feature (upper right corner of this screen) and found this for you: Serpentine Belt Adjustment Haasman

A noise from the vicinity of the alternator that is a rattling - similar to some bearing failures - is often simply the belt 'damper'. A miniature shock absorber, the rubber in the bushes eventually deteriorates, and it should be replaced.
