A noise is coming from the fan belt

[Edward]

A noise is coming from the serpentine fan belt in my Expy 1997 5.4 4WD. I`d like to change it. Someone can tell how to do it?

Thanks

Insert a large 1/2 inch drive ratchet or breaker bar into the recess in the belt tensioner. Relieve the tension off the belt and work it off over the pulleys.
Install the new belt refering to the routing diagram you made before you took off the old one. (Do as I say, not as I do. ). Make sure the grooves on the belt and ribs are aligned on all the pulleys. If not it will make noise and/or chew it up. Pretty easy job.

Good luck,
Tom
