Adjusting Belt Tensioner - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #66422 7 posts Started by DatDudeDEnd
Hey guys I bought an alternator. Its a bigger casing alternator almost twice the size compared to the stock alternator. My belt wont reach the alt.

Heres a pic.



Or would I need to buy a bigger belt?

Is it hard to adjust the tensioner? Also, how do you adjust it? lol

ok, so why did u buy a bigger in size alternator?? and the adjustment for the belt iss usually the alt. what engine do u have? u have to be able to adjust the belt somewhat to give u proper tension. but if you are able to adjust it just get a longer belt
