I need to know how to replace serpentine belt and tools needed for a 1995 Mercury tracer

looks simple

might need a repair manual
if you want to DIY and have skills and tools

single cam ....old school belt tensioner
water pump to replace at the same time
top and bottom marks to line up

A person doesn't need a diagram to replace a serpentine belt.

Simply thread the belt around the pulleys alternating between smooth pulley to back of the belt, and the grooved pulleys to the inside of the belt, until the last pulley is the tensioner pulley, which is loosened using a breaker bar.

It really is that simple.

CLICK on the following LINK. It has all the Diagrams for your Belt that you will need.

I hope help you (remember rated this help) Good luck.

This is the same as a Ford Escort 1.9, the #1 cylinder should be all the way up. To confirm- the crak shift mark should be on zero which is Crank Shift Center- THe camshift sproket should align with the headmark. Make sure both marks don't move. Align the belt- not too tight , not to loose

The timing belt should not have been affwcted. Sounds like you have everything chk'd and accounted for.. The best way to chk the cam and crank is a compression test.

all the windows would usually be a fuse. it is located in your fuse box and should be a 35Amp fuse.

i got the car fixed. my son, who is familiar with the car, came over and had the belt on in 20 minutes. thank you for your help.

Here is a link to a picture of a 2002. Hope it's the same.

Serpentine Diagram

Hey there MSM,

• Get a 14mm or 9/16" socket and a long handled ratchet or breaker bar.
• Get the belt around all the pulleys except the A/C compressor or Alternator. The routing diagram is on one of the radiator supports.
  
• The tensioner pulley is near the Alternator toward the center of the engine. It's on a spring loaded arm. Get your socket on the center nut of this pulley.
• Slowly pull the ratchet toward the center of the engine. The pulley will pivot on the arm allowing you to get the belt on the final pulley.
  
• Slowly release the tension.
  
• You're done
