Re: serpentine belt help...please
You have to replace it because the tensioner is not adjustable...it adjusts automatically with the tension of the belt. If you put a new one on, and find that it's loose right away, you may need a new tensioner.

It's so much easier to get a free lease on a serpentine belt tool from an auto parts store when replacing the belt.
