Generally you make sure you have a diagram of how the belt is routed around the pulleys, then move the spring loaded tensioner pulley away from the belt to remove it.
I have a 2002 saturn vue. Same thing..sounded like a jet engine ...loud humming as I accelerated . It got increasingly worse. It turned out to be the front wheel bearings. Replace them, now the noise is half as loud...have to do the rears also! 93,000 miles on it. Also, don't forget to replace the timing belt. It it goes too long and breaks, it will trash the engine...
only the outside pulley needs to coime off not the cam belt sprocket ,from the sound of it ?? i feel you should entrust this job to the local garage because if you make a mistake you will crunch the valves into the pistons
the water pump is driven by the serpbelt,,it located under the timing belt cover,,,about in the center of the timing belt area,,easy to do,just dont get any coolant on the timing belt,,,if you hav e more than 75k on the car replace the timing belt too before it breaks
