Re: [MBZ] How to adjust AC belt, 240D
It turns out that mine does not have the idler pulley, just a straight belt to the crank pulley. Scott had it right, loosen three bolt/nuts and use an adjustment screw. Neat. Thanks to all that responded, even Jim's humor gave me delight. Harry On 9/28/06, LT Don <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Isn't that what I said? : -) D.

There is an idler pulley, loosen the clamp bolt (up top somewhere) and rotate idler down with a wrench, then tighten clamp bolt. Peter

For hood pads, you want the Super Trim Adhesive. I use the 77 for door vapor barriers because it pulls off without tearing the plastic. Holds _just_ good enough. -- Jim
Re: [MBZ] How to adjust AC belt, 240D
'77 240D it appears that you adjust the pulley that is right in front of the cylinder head. On 9/27/06, Harry Watkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: 1981 240D with loose AC belt.

Re: [MBZ] How to adjust AC belt, 240D
On my 82 300SD and 79 300TD, you losen the big bolts that hold the compressor on and the whole compressor moves with the adjusting screw. All done from below. Only losen enough to move the compressor or thenion will change when you snog them back down.
