I was thinking about getting an underdrive pulley for my 2001, and was wondering how hard it is to even swap them. Im not an expert on cars, so i'll prolly need some sort of instructions. I've heard from people i know that it can be really difficult and that i shouldnt mess with that kind of thing as it can mess up the car. Opinions?

 

Nope, just a matter of undoing a few bolts. The hardest part is taking the belt off, after that it's straight forward.

 

my brother says im gonna be screwed if i mess up the belt....he really doesnt know much about cars in the first place, but i thought id ask. he told me that if the belt comes off( timing or serpentine?), ill be screwed, and my car is history

 

Make a drawing of the belt routing. It HAS to be put back the same way it comes off. And with the new pulley, you will need a new belt. I have the GoodYear part number if you need it

 

you should have a picture of the acc. belt routing somewhere near in the engine bay, methinks. make sure you can read it first.

 

Some have them, mine didn't.

 

so basically, all i have to do is put the new belt on right...ok. If i were to buy an underdrive pulley, would it come with instructions, or is it that straight-forward that you dont even need them?

 

It's pretty straight foreward.

 

ok, thanks, ill take a look under the hood, to see what its like. So you're saying i should have a picture handy to show me how the belt goes on? OK.....What kind of pulley should i get?

 

the kit off rpmputlet.com is good

comes with all u need
