If you go to autozone you need the 55 inch belt made for no p/s or a/c. Part number should be 550K5. This indicates 55.0 inches and a 5 ribbed belt.

To get it off find the tensioner on the timing chain cover. The tensioner is the pulley where the belt goes OVER and holds tension. Take a wrench (the proper sized one of course) and turn it to the left. It will be tough because it is under spring load (tension), once you remove the tension by holding the tensioner at that "open" point you then can slip the belt off. Installation is reverse. Hold the tensioner back and slip the belt on. It's usually easier to get it on the crank first then since you only have the water pump and alternator to worry about, slip it back over those.

Then be careful when releasing the tensioner so that it doesn't spring back all at once and hurt you.

My 1995 saturn tensioner is making a noise and the washer on the bolt is loose..which way do I turn it ?

It can also relate to faulty bearings of the IDLER on the tensioner pulley and if you can pour some water into the gaps while the engine runs and if the noise stops , this can be a reason too.
If not as mentioned you can use the right tool to hold the tension and tighten clockwise.

How do you replace the water pump on a 1995 Saturn sl1

it is under the timing chain cover. the serpentine belt and all that accompanying stuff has to be removed and/or disconnected. while you are doing this you may want to do the timing chain and sprockets too to avoid duplicating labor next year. The oil pump is also in there. This is a lot of work and not for the neophyte, the timing chain has to be put in maintaining proper relationship between the crank and cam shafts.

1995 saturn 1.9 single head cam can not get to start has fire has gas has 44lb gas pressure timing belt is good what could it be?

There is no timing belt on a Saturn S-series, only a timing chain which you cannot see. You are possibly talking about the serpentine belt for the accessories.

It is possible that you need to replace your Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor needs to be replaced if it hasn't before. Check the connector as well for gunk and replace that too if needed.

The only other thing you don't know you have which is one of the 3 required things for combustion is compression, which is verified with a compression tester. That is a long shot but a possibility for a problem.

Does saturn sl1 1995 have a timing belt

No the Saturn S-series all use a timing chain. The chain is expected to outlive the car given the proper maintenance of oil changes and the proper level is maintained.

Automatic seat belt removal and replace with regular seat belts

You'd need to pickup the need parts at the junkyard. You'll need the "A" to "B" pillar trim, lower "B" pillar trim, front seat belts and seatbelt giude from a 1995 SC1 or SC2.

The treaded hole in the frame of the car where the track of the automatic seatbelt assembly attaches is in a slightly different place than the three point system. Its not a problem though. You just need to drill a 3/4" hole slightly above the existing hole in the trim panel. The existing hole is hidden by the seatbelt and not noticable at all.

Everything else pretty much bolts or snaps into place.

I've done this swap on several 1991-1994 Saturn S-Series.

Replace serpentine belt on a 1995 Saturn sl1. 1.9 engine

Yes! It is a whole lot easier and faster to take off the passenger tire. Remove plastic cover with speed pins. It is a lot easier to get to the belt tensioner to release belt tension also.Just put a 14mm wrench or 9/16" wrench on the tensioner at the 4:00 o'clock position and push down the belt will be easy to remove and reverse this to install the new one GOOG LUCK *****badgto1NJ
