On my 1994 ford ranger with a 2.3L 4 cylinder, I had to replace the serpentine belt. I had 2-3 inches of slack in the belt and found out I needed a new idler pulley mine was gone. Once I got the new idler pulley I installed it and routed the serpentine belt to the diagram under the hood. I now have the problem of not having enough slack to put the belt over the alternator when the tensioner pulley is pulled back as far as it will go. I called autozone and their system says they sold me the correct parts. Any ideas?
Try putting the belt on the alternator then slide it under the idler pulley last.
