Try to loosen all bolts on P/Steering pump and you will find the movement that you can stretch belt. This is only one place for adjusting the belt. x19

It's back together now and seens to be working ok. I'll try the bolts later this week. I stripped a bolt in the crank pully and broke the new serp tensioner during the repair. spent most of the weekend in the garage. I'm tired! New timing belt, all other belts, WP, therm, pully's and tensioners, coolant, changed oil for under $225. Looking forward to work Monday. thanks for your help. Jim
