Guys.. how do you loosen the a/c tensioner bolt? The one that's under the A/C belt. I can't seem to get at that bolt. Open ended wrench or a socket? Any easy way to get the A/C belt off?

I'm midway my JRSC install.. Please help..

 

Once I worked my hands down in there to it, I then took, I think it is a 12mm wrench and put it on the side closest to the block and angled it onto the head of the bolt while kinda of pushing lightly prying/moving the belt off to the side a little.
Try pulling on the belt a little towards the drivers side fender, and slide your wrench onto it.

 

fock it cut the belt.....

 

I think I've always been able to get at it with a 12mm shallow socket on a 3/8"-drive ratchet then slap a 19mm deep socket with a 6" extension on the butt of the ratchet as a cheater bar.

 

its a 14mm and you should be able to fit a standard 3/8" socket wrench down there. if u have A/C, P/S or CC it may be a little harder to get to. i always go down there on the firewall side of the motor mount. i have all 3 of those ammenities and all i do is get a wrench down there, guide it onto the bolt with my other free hand then put a pipe of some sort over the handle of the wrench and crack her loose.

if u get real frustrated and that still doesnt work, just put the jack underneath the motor and remove the motor mount

 

make shure you are loossing the belt and not tighten it

for a honda all you need to work on on is a 8mm 10mm 12mm 14mm 17mm and a 19mm for the wheels

 

A/C belt is tensioned by 2 bolts the gold 12 mm on that holds the pulley to the mount and the adjustment bolt which is a 10 mm

a socket and ratchet will work best, but you'll have to get the power steering belt out of the way.

 

what motor is it for?????????

 

Yep, you should be able to slide a wrench around the long nut, 12mm I believe. It will break loose and you then can loosen the tensioner bolt, which is 10mm.

BTW you got PM dude, Im not sure if its working right.

 

b series is a 14mm i dont know about d and h tho off the top of my head
