Re: ac belt replacement in 89 sedan (hb420)
If you look in the engine compartment, on the right, their is a tensioner that puts the tension on the A/C belt. On the front of the pully is a 12mm nut. You loosen the nut, then their is a bolt that actually raises or lowers the tensioner. You loosen the tensioner bolt and then you can take a belt off or put a new one on. When you put a new one on, you need to retension the belt, so it has about 1/4 inch of flex when you push on it.
Try that, if the belt squeals when you turn the A/C on, you can tension it a little more.
