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.

It got too dark for a good look at everything after I got the new water pump
installed, so, I thought maybe someone has BTDT and save me some pitfalls.

I prefer to use a wrench, myself.

'77 240D it appears that you adjust the pulley that is right in front of the
cylinder head.

There is an idler pulley, loosen the clamp bolt (up top somewhere) and
