There will be 4 belts: Air pump, alternator, P/S & A/C. If using the stock clutch fan, you'll need to undo the four 10mm nuts where the fan attaches to the water pump pulley. Pull the fan off the studs and out from the shroud to give yourself room to work. Remove the P/S and A/C belts first by loosening the 3/4" nuts in the center of the two idler pulleys. Adjust the 10mm tensioner bolts to allow slack in the belts, then take them off. For the alternator and air pump belts, loosen the bolts at the pivot points & the ones on the adjuster brackets.
