Order of re-assembling alternator and pump bolts 200

posted by  someone claiming to be dave on  Sun Mar 8 06:32 CST 2009 [RELATED]

I have changed the warer pump and am putting stuff back together but forget the steps to put the belts back on. I know I have to put the pulley on the pump
but the belts are too tight to go on. What is the sequence?

I assume I have to pivot the alternator up on the banana bracket as much as I can to losen the belts but it seems it is still too tight. Do I put the pump pully on before I put the belts on etc.

If I sound stupid, excuse me, I am exhausred from 8 hours of effort and having to overcome such things such as looseing one of the pump nuts down the timing belt case (fished out with a magnet, shearing a pump bolt into the block and finally being on bolt short of finishing the job. I think I'll call it a day.

I'm not sure it was worth it but at leasr I'm saving a little money and learning when things look real hopeless keep on trying.

Please dumb down the belt replacement steps for Me:)

Thanks!
