Im mechanic and i can tell u when the belt start squeling u have to tighten the belt a little bit more the way u can check for the proper tension of the belt is to twist it and it should be 90 degree if its less that means the belt is still loose if u cant turn it 90 degree it means the belt its too tight

Thanks for making this video. I had a bit of intermittent squealing from the starboard engine of my boat yesterday. I thought it was coming from the serpentine belt, but I couldn't see anything wrong, apart from some belt dust in the vicinity. On a short run today, I had intermittent low volts from the starboard engine and then a bit more intermittent squealing, so it looks like the alternator belt is at fault. I thought I was in for a big job with restricted access, but now I know how easy it is I'm looking forward to fixing it tomorrow.

Thanks for the video. Helps me understand the bolt-style tensioners better. I've only seen the spring loaded kind.

Great great video, much appreciated. Looks like my tensioner is extended all the way and my belt is still loose so Ill need a new, shorter belt, the previous owner must have put the wrong one on.

Matt, good luck with it. Yes, some people are careless about getting the correct length of belt. Sometimes it’s not real easy to measure what the correct length should be. If the markings on the old one tell its length, that will be a start for you. And buying more than one length might also be wise. Do you have to remove a coolant hose to change your belt? If so, it’s not a bad idea to install a spare belt (after removing the coolant hose) that you tie up out of the way with wire zip ties to have available if your other belt fails. This saves you the trouble of having to disconnect the coolant hose in order to replace the belt. This is the case with our Ford Lehman diesel.

The things you were speaking of you never showed us plus the camera was at poor angles and sometimes not showing the entire alternator
