How do you adjust the belt on a 1999 Pontiac Montana?
The system that the belt runs on ,is called a serpentine system,it's a one belt set-up ,and they are self adjusted by a tensioner,sounds like...1- Your tensioner is seized,or ..2-your belt is streched..Sometimes the tensioner can be free'd by taking it of and working it in with lubrication,but if not,get a new tensioner and a belt, hope it helps.

Serpentine belt replacement 2005 Toyota corolla?
what's the question? how to do it? specific to corolla or just serpentine belt in general? release tension on belt by: -put a socket/breaker bar or ratched on the tensioner pulley bolt and use it to relieve tension on the belt -slide belt off tensioner pulley. replace with new belt in same pattern across all pulleys and again relieve tension on the tensioner puller to slide the new belt back on --you may need to remove the bolt on the tensioner closest to the pulley (i don't know just judging by the picture i found) ---if you don't know what the tensioner looks like look up the part on autozone's website for a picture you can match on your car

How do you tighten the serpentine belt on a 2002 Buick LeSabre 3.8 Liter engine?
If the belt is old it may be stretched to far for the tensioner to pull tight but If the belt is new then it could either be wrong belt or the tensioner spring is faulty. Be sure the belt is on properly if it isn't on one of the pulleys it won't tighten, also be sure you are putting it on the tensioner(you have to pull tensioner using a large wrench or breaker bar and slide belt on to it last,after other pulleys) I know it may sound like common sence but I've had friends who tried putting it on the tensioner first attempting to use the belt to move the tensioner.
How do you adjust tensioner to replace thrown belt on 1992 buick lesabre wac v6 4.3?
The tensioner is automatic, no adjustment needed. If you threw the serpentine belt then look for a misaligned pulley or worn tensioner wheel. If you need to move the tensioner to get the belt back on then look for a square hole in the tensioner arm. Use a breaker bar with the appropriate sized square (probably 3/4") to move the arm to get the belt back on. probably tensioner is bad like a failed bearing
