Bought a 1986 cutlass supreme this weekend and I’m trying to sort out an issue I’ve found with the AC belt. It appears to be loose because it flaps around from the crank pulley to the bottom of the compressor.
I tried adding tension to it using a breaker bar in the 1/2” drive slot at the top of the Ac compressor bracket but it’s still flopping around a lot.
It’s still got the original 307 and v belts are new to me so I’m very inexperienced with them. I’m assuming the curved slot at the top of the bracket is where I would adjust tension? It’s fluttering a lot and I’m thinking there’s something I’m missing. Can anyone tell me other things I should check or a different way to add tension?
Thanks in advance
