there is a stud that goes through the mount. You will need to remove the stud, then you can take out the spacer that goes between the engine and mount. Then you will be able to install the belt.

I assume you mean reverse thread? So does it loosen to the right? If this is correct then no. It loosens to the left or counter clock wise.

I attached the info from the manual on how to replace the belt just in case you need it.

Let us know if you need more info. Thanks
