I went to change out the drive belt/serpentine belt/accessory belt and per the directions you're supposed to use a 3/8" wrench and turn the tensioner counterclockwise. My problem is that with the truck sitting in the elements for 14 years, the previously mentioned part does not want to move. Any ideas on how to break it free?
I didn't pull the fan and shroud, really don't want to but will if it'll be substantially easier; need to switch out the thermostat and water pump gasket anyway...
