#1 of 3 Serpintine belt replacement 01 Blazer w/V-6 Vortec by waynedp Nov 13, 2007 (7:01 pm)
Where is the tensioner location on this engine? Chiltons doesn't have the right diagram pictured and i've tried loosening what i believe is the tensioner with no release of tension. Any pics , diagrams out there for my 4.3L ? Thanks, Replies to this message: steve_ (Nov 13, 2007 7:29 pm) jlflemmons (Nov 15, 2007 3:08 pm)
