Changing P/S, A/C belt on '93 Mazda Protege'?
I'm trying to change the belts on a 1993 Mazda Protege' LX with the
1.8L DOHC engine. It has P/S and A/C. The first belt to remove is the one that goes around the P/S, A/C and crankshaft pulley. I've loosened the two locknuts (one on the Adjuster and one on the P/S pump). I've also loosened the bolt where the P/S pump looks like it pivots. The bolt on the end of the adjuster is also loosened. The belt doesn't seem to be getting any slacker. Ideas? |

Changing P/S, A/C belt on '93 Mazda Protege'?
I figured it out. I needed to loosen the Adjuster quite a bit more and
then the P/S pump *just barely* tilts towards the front of the car to loosen the belt enough to get it off the pulleys. coldje wrote: > I'm trying to change the belts on a 1993 Mazda Protege' LX with the > 1.8L DOHC engine.

Changing P/S, A/C belt on '93 Mazda Protege'?
I wonder if this is the same on my 93 DX with a SOHC? I am trying to
replace the same belt, and cannot seem to get the belt off. I seen o belt tensioner, so what gives? coldje wrote: > I figured it out.
