How to Install a Drive Belt on 3.7L/4.7L Engines on Dodge Dakota?

Before installing the drive belt on 3.7L/4.7L engines, examine the condition of all the pulleys. A key part is to direct the serpentine accessory drive belt correctly to stop the engine from overheating because of a misguided water pump. Circle the belt around the pulleys except the idler pulley before you begin the installation. Rotate the tensioner arm until it stops against the body of the engine, then put the belt behind the idler (5) and let the tensioner fit under the belt on the other pulleys. After fitting, examine the belt wear indicator; for 4.7L engines, the distance between the tang and the housing stop (A) should not go beyond 24 mm (0.94 inches). Should the measurement pass the threshold, then change the serpentine accessory drive belt.

How to Remove the Drive Belt on 3.7L/4.7L Engines on Dodge Dakota?

Before changing the accessory drive belt, first unplug the negative battery cable from its place on the battery. After that, twist the tensioner 6 times until it touches the stop and pull off the belt 2. When the belt is no longer needed, rotate the tensioner arm very slowly to the position furthest from the sprocket; be careful not to let it snap away which can hurt the tensioner. Do not forget that the belt tension cannot be adjusted and is being maintained by the accessory drive belt tensioner.
