Re: how do i tighten my belts. (92hondalude)
so you're removing your compressor or replacing it?
if you're replacing it, then you need to properly evacuate and recharge the system, then it should be a no brainer as far as the belt.. tension it the same way you released the tension on the oe belt before you removed the compressor.
if you're straight up REMOVING your a/c.. that's a different story. i've never dealt with that, but isnt the tensioner for the belt on the compressor BRACKET and not the actual compressor? if so, with a shorter belt, you should still be able to use the tensioner.
