  Q: How to Remove and Replace a Drive Belt on Chrysler Crossfire?

  A:

  First, loosen the screws near the engine cover, hold both ends and pull up to remove the cover. After that, turn the Belt Tensioner counterclockwise to leave some slack on the drive belt and take it off each pulley. Slowly release how you are squeezing the tensioner so that the belt slackens. Check the accessory drive belt for any problems and also inspect the pulleys for signs of wear or harm. Change the accessory drive belt or pulley when it is required.

  Q: How to Maintain a Drive Belt on Chrysler Crossfire?

  A:

  To start any servicing of the drive belt, you should begin by grabbing the end of the engine cover and firmly pulling it open. Then, turn the Belt Tensioner to the left to free the accessory drive belt, pull the belt from the pulleys and release the tensioner. Open the accessory drive belt to look for wear and check the condition of the pulleys too, changing them when necessary. An accessory drive belt should be changed if it shows considerable wear, damaged cords or deep glazing; modest cracks found on the ribbed side are acceptable, but if the crack is continuous and parallel, it implies the belt should be changed. It's important not to apply any dressing or protection to the accessory drive belt. While installing, lead the accessory drive belt to the pulleys of the engine, unscrew the belt tensioner in the opposite direction and put the belt in place over the tensioner pulley. Dynamic cam tensioner release and put aside the wrench; stretch and clip the engine cover over the rubber mounts and press the cover down firmly. Put a little lubricant on the rubber mounts before installing them. After all else, run the engine to check that the accessory drive has been placed and secured correctly.
