Changing the serpentine belt chevy malibu 1999 10 POINTS QUICK?

Ok what the trick to change the serpentine belt on my 1999 chevy malibu.10 PTS HURRY|||Use a serpentine tool and pull the tensioner to the side, this allows the belt to come off. sometimes a wrench or a ratchet works too but takes more effort.... put the belt back on according to the diagram located under the hood.. its easier to go around every thing but the alternator. pull the belt close to the alt and use the serp tool to give enough slack to slide it over the alternator.. you will find this is pretty simple, little hands work too lol|||put a ratchet on the tensioner to release tension. Then take the old belt off the alternator, then, paying very close attention to how it%26#039;s routed remove it the rest of the way. then put the new one on the same way, then put the ratchet back on the tensioner and finally back on the alternator. If you forget how it routes there should be a sticker somewhere that shows you how it goes. If there is a motor mount in the way you must be routing it wrong. look for the sticker.
