So....I have been trying to take this damn belt off, but have no clue how. I see the tension adjuster, but that's about the only thing I can see which could affect the belt to take it off. Is there another bolt somewhere that I need to undo?

I know with the alternator, you can just unscrew 1 super long bolt and the alternator shifts so you can get slack on the belt. Is it similar with the power steering and I am just blind as to where this bolt is?

If i remember correct, you need to loosen the bolt at the bottom of the pump, with which it is connected to the lower block a bit, and of course loosen the tension adjuster. After that you should be able to press the pump down and remove the belt.

Thank you! It turned out to be 3 bolts that are connected to the block, had to take 2 of them off and loosen the furthest one away from the ps pump.
