how to replace power steering - a/c belts on a 1984 240 DL 200

posted by  someone claiming to be george84 on  Tue Aug 19 08:35 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I have a 1984 240 DL (affectionately named George), and I was recently out and about, and smelled something like burning plastic...checked under the hood, and smoke was emanating from the a/c compressor. it appeared it had sucked up a plastic bag and the pulley was seized...so I cut the belts to get home.

now, the pulley has been freed, and Im trying to replace the belts, (power steering and a/c, since they seem to be joined at the hip, per se) but can't figure out where the tensioner is on the a/c pump, and I left my repair manual at a friends house... any pointers would be most appreciated.
