Drive Belt: Adjustments

P/S Belt:





The steering pump drive belt also drives the coolant pump, and is tensioned by a screw-type adjuster.
- Slacken the pump mounting pivot bolt and adjust pivots, reset the adjuster to tension the belt so that a load of 2,9 kg (6.4 lb), applied to its mid-point between crankshaft and steering pump, deflects the belt 4,3 mm (0.17 in).
- Re-tighten pivot bolts after correcting belt tension.
