replacing serpentine belt on a CT322

[bigndn]

My serpentine belt blew up the other night. I'm going back to replace it this weekend. Should the radiator be pulled to access the rear of the engine, or is there an easier way? TIA

This being the Yanmar engine, the alternator is the adjuster and the item that has to be loosened to enable the belt to be replaced, It is close quarters, but you should be able to get the old belt off and the new belt over the fan blade without having to remove the radiator.You also need to Remove the three bolts holding the adapter to the pulley. .
