How to Remove and Replace the Drive Belt on a 2.0/2.4L Engine on Chrysler PT Cruiser?

Before making any belt changes on a 2.0/2.4L engine, switch off the vehicle and check the belt tension. As you put the drive belt onto the pulleys, check that each V-groove on the belt is aligned with a groove of the pulley. Attach the belt and tighten the adjusting bolt according to what's written in the Belt Tension Chart. To test generator belt tension, apply Special Tool 8371 - Belt Tension Gauge Adapter to the Drbiii(R), put the adapter near the belt at the center span, pluck the belt a few times and read the frequency on the Drbiii(R). Use the chart to select the recommended belt frequency and then adjust the belt to reach it. Fix the pivot bolt and locking nut onto the casing so they reach a torque of 54 Nm (40 ft. lbs.). After rolling the belt over the rest of the pulleys, use a wrench to turn the belt tensioner clockwise and fit the belt onto the power steering pump pulley. After the installation is done, look at the belt length indicator marks-2, 3 and 5-and make sure they are inside the minimum and maximum length marks, with the new belt sitting near the middle range. After that, secure the belt splash shield.

How to Ensure Proper Maintenance and Installation of Drive Belts on Belt Pulleys on Chrysler PT Cruiser?

Carefully clear off everything stuck in the belt pulz grooves and make sure the pulleys are dry before continuing. Loose or torn cords, too much wear or serious glazing mean the belt must be replaced. While the ribbed part of the Poly-V Belt system can develop minor cracks, these are fine; however, if the cracks are parallel, you should still replace the belt. Never use any dressing or restorer on Poly-V Belts.

Drive Belt is used to link Chrysler PT Cruiser car's engine to numerous parts, including the alternator as well as A/C compressor. Usually, a serpentine belt is used, it passes around all these parts and connects them with the crankshaft pulley. This design enables effective power supply to the parts in order to meet their intended function. Society of Chrysler PT Cruiser cars has changed the types of Drive Belts in various years using both V-belts and the multi-groove belts. V-belts have good traction and are long-wearing qualities, on the other hand, Multi-groove belts increase flexibility and efficiency.
