I had my serpentine belt break on me on my 97 Deville and went to replace it. I routed the belt correctly and can't for the life of me figure out how to loosen the tensioner to finish the installation. How do I loosen it, where do I look, what size socket do I need etc? I'm really in the dark on this one =(

Thank You
