Ok, I am new to this forum and I am looking for some help here. My sons 1992 accord has a loose belt that drives the alternator and the a/c compressor. I can't seem to figure out how to tighten the belt. There is not enough room to even get a socket on the lower thru bolt much less room enough to get your hands in there to manipulate a wrench. There appears to be an adjusting bolt at the front of the alternator but am not sure how it works, which way to turn it and not sure if the two thu bolts need to be lossened before attempting to adjust the belt tension. I have had the car to two different shops and both times the car came back with a loose, squeeling belt. I have searched for a good detailed photo and havent found one that shows enough detail. If I could see or understand how the adjutment is done I might be able to get er done. Is there a special tool involved?

The easiest way is to first remove the power steering pump. Once out of the way, it's much easier to get to the alternator belt.
