Fan belt 1992 ford fairlane needs tightening - Cars & Trucks

  • Anonymous Sep 22, 2013

    Sorry, the question is brief. How can I tighten the belt, as it will sqeal when I start, for about 2 - 5 minutes; or if it's raining, will squeal off & on. I've seen it done, but the mechanics are usually too quick for me to follow. Any easy directions, or videos? Thanks in advance

There should be an idler pulley in the system. Loosen off the big nut in front of the pulley and there should be a smaller nut or flats on the shaft. Turn this and the pulley will travel up or down a toothed section behind the pulley. When adjusted tighten the big nut.

It should be a pulley where you loosen the center bolt and turn an adjusting bolt to move.

Air vents: Ford Fairlane (1992)

In regards to the air vent direction. Look inside on the side of the heater and see if the actuator motor is moving the doors when you select the position to blow air on the vents or floor of car. They are a small motor and burn out and sometimes just stick.

I need help on how to replace a ford 99 model super cab fan belt and what size belt would I need... also can I tighten the head gasket with a shifter.. cluless? ? Thank you. Carryn

First to get right fan belt you tell folks at parts store year, make & model & engine size and they look it up for you. To change belt depending in which belt you have to loosen alternator, power steering pump etc... bolts and slop old belt off new one on and retighten. (Parts folks can show you how also) If you have a bad head gasket, they need to be replaced not tightened.

Need diagram for serpentine belt

14ae203.jpg

Fig. 1: Exploded view of the belt drive fan assembly-1992 vehicle shown

To install:
1. Position the fan on the drive clutch. Install the bolt and washer assemblies, then tighten to 12-17 ft. lbs. (16-24 Nm).

2. Position the fan drive clutch, fan assembly and fan shroud, then bolt the fan and clutch assembly to the water pump hub. Install and tighten the clutch retaining bolt and water pump assemblies evenly and alternately to 15-22 ft. lbs. (20-30 Nm) for the 3.8L engine or to 36-47 ft. lbs. (48-65 Nm) for the 5.0L engine.

3. Install the fan belt. Align the fan shroud and adjust for equal fan-to-shroud radiator clearance but maintaining a minimum of 0.38 inch clearance to the fan tip on 5.0L engines.

4. Install and tighten the shroud retaining screws. On 5.0L engines, snap the air deflector assembly to the sub-frame cross brace.

Crank shaft doesnt line up with anyother pulleys on fan belt on a nl fairlane

It may be a thrust bearing failure on the crankshaft. See if you can pry or push/pull the crank pulley in and out. If you can move the pulley in and out very much at all there is a problem with the thrust bearings and the engine will need major repair.

Changeing fan belts

fan bealt is easy to change all you need to do is right down how the belt runs befor you start and then loosen the alatanator and move it closer to loosen the belt then remove the belt around the fan and replace just like you wrote down then use a bar to tighten the belt by prying the altaator away from the motor but don't make it to tight then once tou have it as tight as you want tighten back the altanator and thats it
