My fan/alt/ps belt broke
Could someone guide me to a diagram or have a pic how it goes on? I guess the crappy engine noise I was hearing was from a pulley connected to this belt. I spun the fan and alternator and the bearings sound ok, so I'm guessing its the belt tensioner pulley?

is it possible to change all 3 belts without pulling the bumper? the lower one looks like it but the main and the accessory belt looks like a pain in the ***.. id rather pay someone to rip the front end off the do it

Ok, I have the whole front end off and spun the belt tensioner pulley and it sounds quiet so it has to be the ps pump. I'm getting one tomorrow with a new belt. After exposing the timing belt area I was glad to find where the engine was leaking oil. It's from the cam seal. I don't know if I should just go ahead and do a TB job while I'm at it and put on a new seal. Is there a special tool to get the seal out and put a new one in? Also, is there any difference between a ZF or KYB ps pump? Thanks.

One weird thing I noticed is that the mark on the cam gear is not lined up to the mark above the TB. It's on the opposite side. I guess it's set at another new cycle? If I do the TB, should I just leave it where it's at since the engine runs fine?
