How to Install a Drive Belt on a 3.8L Engine on 2009 Jeep Wrangler?

Check the health of the pulleys before instaling the serpentine accessory drive belt on a 3.8L engine. Ensuring the accessory drive belt is properly installed stops the engine from overheating because of a wrong water pump rotation. Start off by running the accessory drive belt around every pulley but the idler pulley. Following this, turn the accessory drive belt tensioner (6) clockwise until it reaches the point where it stops. After that, steer the accessory drive belt (8) onto the idler pulley (1) and ensure the tensioner moves into the belt gently. Install the accessory drive belt so that it sits in place on each pulley.
