To introduce the serpentine drive system with the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner, the following operations will be required.
|
|
1.
| caution |
To reuse the alternator and others belt, draw an arrow indicating the rotating direction on the back of the alternator and others belt using chalk to install the same direction.
|
Rotate the pulley bolt of the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner anti-clockwise with an offset wrench [recommendation: 45 degrees, a long offset wrench (5/8 x 11/16 inches)], and insert the hexagon wrench into the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner hole to fix the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner.
2.Remove the alternator and others belt.

1.Use the following special tools to support the crankshaft pulley:
- Front hub and flange yoke holder (MB990767)
- Pin (MD998719)
2.Loosen the crankshaft pulley centre bolt and remove the crankshaft pulley washer and crankshaft pulley.
|
|
1.Wipe off the dirt on the crankshaft sprocket, crankshaft and crankshaft pulley as shown in the figure using a rag, and then degrease the areas.
| note |
Degrease them to prevent drop in the friction coefficient of the pressed area which is caused by oil adhesion.
|
2.Install the crankshaft pulley.
3.Wipe off the dirt on the crankshaft pulley washer and the crankshaft pulley centre bolt as shown in the figure using a rag.
4.Apply an adequate and minimum amount of engine oil to the thread of the crankshaft pulley centre bolt and the lower area of the flange.
|
|
5.Use the following special tools as during removal to support the crankshaft pulley:
- Front hub and flange yoke holder (MB990767)
- Pin (MD998719)
6.Tighten the crankshaft pulley centre bolt to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 210 N·m

1.
| caution |
- To reuse the alternator and others belt, install it by aligning the arrow mark on the backside of belt marked at the removal with the rotating direction.
- Check that the notches of the notched pulley and the notches of the alternator and others belt are fit correctly.
- Check that the alternator and others belt is installed in the centre of the flat surface of the flat pulley.
|
Install the alternator and others belt to each pulley as shown in the figure.
|
|
2.Set an offset wrench [recommendation: 45 °, a long offset wrench (5/8 x 11/16 inches)] to the pulley bolt of the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner. Then, rotate the auto-tensioner anti-clockwise and remove the L-shaped hexagon wrench fixing the auto-tensioner.
3.Apply tension to the alternator and others belt while slowly turning the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner clockwise.
