How Do You Change The Power Steering Belt On A Dodge Stealth?
Replacing the power-steering belt on a Dodge Stealth is necessary periodically. The drive belt wears over time due to the heat in the engine bay and stress on the belt from the continuous tension placed on it. The belt begins to crack and eventually breaks, causing the power-steering pump to become inoperable, potentially causing an accident. To prevent such troubles, inspect your belts periodically and replace if necessary. Open the hood and prop. Loosen the lock bolt with a ratchet and loosen the belt tensioner until the belt is loose enough to remove. The Dodge Stealth uses multiple drive belts rather than a serpentine belt and therefore requires that each belt be removed separately with its own lock bolt and tensioner. Pull the power-steering pump up and down repeatedly until the belt comes out without significant force. Install the new power-steering belt onto the power-steering pump pulley and crank pulley. Tighten the tensioner until the belt only has approximately half an inch
