Where can i find a diagram/instructions on how to change the serpentine belt on a 2000 mazda mpv?

At many auto parts stores you can buy a Haynes do-it-yourself manual, with excellent wiring diagrams, step-by-step instructions, and basic explanations at the beginning of each chapter.



db667089 says: you can check http://www.alldatadiy.com. For about the same price as a Haynes or Chilton's repair manual, you can have online access (for a whole year) to model specific info for your particular vehicle. This is the same info that repair shops use. They have great wiring schematics/diagrams.



Also, for about $15 for a one-month subscription, you can get the factory manual, downloadable (careful! Mine was about 500 pages!) or viewable, at http://eAutoRepair.com.Where can i find a diagram/instructions on how to change the serpentine belt on a 2000 mazda mpv?
One of the Pulleys is a tension-er. Place a socket wrench on the bolt where it attaches to the engine and you will find that it is spring loaded. Just move it enough to slip the belt off of it. It is important that you route the new belt the correct way. There is usually a diagram right under the hood near the radiator. If not, draw one or take a few photos before you begin.
