Power Steering Belt Tension
« on: April 29, 2025, 17:03:44 »
Can anyone tell me how tight the power steering belt should be?  Should it be similar to the fan belt?  I removed the steering wheel pump and have reinstalled but I didn't pay attention to the belt tension before I removed it.  I hope someone can help.  Thanks.

I tighten enough so it doesn’t slip. The more you tighten the more the wear.
