Search For Chevrolet Belts And Hoses
When dealing with older models such as the Blazer, aftermarket Chevrolet belts and hoses made by Gates or Goodyear can give you a reasonably priced alternative to OEM parts. This is also true for expensive imports. An aftermarket belt, for example, can be as much as $100 cheaper. If you do the work yourself, you can save even more.
If you are concerned about making these sorts of repairs yourself, don't be. It's a relatively simple process that you should be able to do quickly and easily. If you have someone to help, by holding the parts while you attach them, it's even easier.
Replacing Chevrolet Belts and Hoses
To replace a Chevrolet serpentine belt, simply move the tensioner to ease the tension and take off the old belt. You'll need a socket wrench or breaker bar to move the tensioner out of position. If you have a friend helping, one of you can hold the tensioner out of place while the other unwraps the belt. Once the old one is off, thread the new one in the same way and release the tensioner. Replacing a hose is even easier. Just unscrew the clamps, remove the old hose, put the new one in place and tighten the clamps.
