I need instructions on changing my alternator belt. Please help. I cannot get the car to move to take it anywhere. I am on my own. Any advice would help.

I dont think its a big deal to do it!
don`t worry!
first at all, check your car`s hood for the route of the belt (it should be somewhere printed in there)
after that look for a tensioner and a free roller, I don`t know what kind of tensioner use your car, spring loaded or adjustable (screws) loose the tensioner install the belt and adjust the pressure (if its spring tensioner dont worry about it) that simple!

post your questions!

Hope it helps!
