    I am looking for a diagram for you now.



    You usually can find one on the under side of the hood or left side by the radiator overflow bottle

  • Anonymous Feb 07, 2010


    There should be a diagram
    under the hood that shows you how. If not, contact a parts store or dealer and they will print you out a diagram to show you how to do it.

  • Anonymous Feb 07, 2010

    Sorry there is no Diagrams online to show you how. I will let you know if the pully is smooth the the back side of the belt goes around it. If it is groved the the grove side of belt goes on it.

Open the hood and look at the very back corner (passenger side) of the engine compartment, there will be a white plastic bottle with a black thread on lid. This is where the power steering fluid goes. The bottle has marks on the side of it to indicate how far to fill if needed.
