To check belt tension, place a straightedge (ruler) across two adja-
cent pulleys and apply a force of 22 lb (98 N, 10 kg) midway betweenthe pulleys by using a spring scale. Belt deflection should be the
amount specified. 3.0 liter models
It is unnecessary to check belt tension periodically because your
engine is equipped with an automatic belt tension adjuster. However,
replacement of the belt should be done according to the maintenance
