1994 Grand Am Belt Tightening

Hi All:

What component moves to adjust the steering pump-water pump belt? Is it the power steering pump?

Thanks Wink Martindale

no tightening is necessary. Belt tension is controlled by a spring loaded belt tensioner.

Look for the small pulley, There may be a hole in part of the pivot bracket for a 1/2 " square drive or the pulley may have a nut on it to move the pulley up or down to releive tension to remove the belt.

The nut on mine is 18mm.
