5.9L DIESEL
The 5.9L diesel engine accessory drive system (with a/c) consists of :
Generator Pulley (1)
Water Pump Pulley (2)
Idler Pulley (3)
Power Steering Pump Pulley (4)
Radiator Fan Pulley (5)
Crankshaft Pulley (6)
Automatic Tensioner (7)
A/C Compressor Pump Pulley (8)
CAUTION: When installing the accessory drive belt, the belt must be routed correctly. If not, engine may overheat due to water pump rotating in wrong direction. Refer to or for correct engine belt routing. The correct belt with correct length must be used.
1.
Position drive belt over all pulleys except water pump pulley.
2.
Attach a 1/2 inch ratchet to tensioner.

3.
Rotate ratchet and belt tensioner clockwise. Place belt over water pump pulley. Let tensioner rotate back into place. Remove ratchet. Be sure belt is properly seated on all pulleys.
2.0L Engines See Figures 11, 12 and 13 The
accessory drive belt for 2.0L engines has no provision for manual belt
adjustment, since these engines use an automatic belt tensioner. Drive
belt slack is taken up by the automatic tensioner. Movement of
the automatic tensioner assembly during engine operation is not a sign
of a malfunctioning tensioner. This movement is the tensioner
self-adjusting and is required to maintain constant belt tension. The belt tensioner has a belt length indicator. If the indicator marks are not between the MIN and MAX marks, the belt must be replaced.
