Wooow I’m impressed ...after 24 hrs ...of trying to figure out....how to install the belt.now I finally put the belt back on..thanks to this video. I really thanks to this nice mechanic.for his intelligence.
Say I gotta give this guy props...... I was stuck trying to get this belt on that was the best trick in the book works like a charm...... I can't believe how long I spent on it before I watched this video boom just like that 5 minutes later..... Engine complete car running 2011 Ford flex
This method works great. I would add, make SURE that the PS belt is aligned correctly on the crank pulley. I would also suggest to pre- position the engine so that you are not fighting the compression stroke.
Just did this little treat of a job this past weekend on 09' Taurus jacked up from the ground Used 10 or so dollar store zip ties. Did not use any spray or lube on the belt. Went on fine as shown here. If anyone decides to DIY make sure to have some extra plastic fasteners on hand for the wheel well. Worst part for me was lugging the jack back to the shed after job. It's one of those Harbor fright heavy as a boat anchor jacks. Nice demo on the installation btw.
Appreciate this video Robert. My 2011 Limited has a tear in it and I can see the metal belt flapping out. It's been making an awful squeak but I thought it was a serpentine or pulley. Hope it can last until this weekend when I can get it on the lift and replace it.
Thank you very much for the video I went to pull out a engine at junk yard and I was like how I can cut ✂️ it but how to install mine back 😀 😄 😅 🙂 after your video 📹 I know what I'm going to do thank you so much
Yup, and I love the water pump inside the engine!!! They are sooooo very smart!! Nice way to make when your pump fails, turns your engine into a boat anchor!!
I would not go that far, but I understand you, cause I fill the same about cars since engineers installed computers , transverse engines,fuel pumps inside the gas tank and sensors everywhere.
Worse belt system. Since there is not a tensioner control bolt ,the belt life always will be in a perils. Cars disigners engineer using too much drugs.
Fords are crap but my wife insists on owning them. After paying well over $1000 to get the water pump changed on this Taurus and now her seeing what a turd this motor is to work on, maybe she’ll get a different make next time. Go get the tool and do it right or you’ll destroy your new belt. You can borrow it for free usually.

Works like a charm. Thank you
so would it be possible if the other belts are still on....... only my power steering belt poped off

Amazing video

The one or ones who created those " new technology engines" must but put to face a military Fired Squad altogether with all their families.

excellent
Wow tnx aaaa lot
Where can you buy the belt
thanks
Does turning the harmonic balancer pull the pistons out of time?
CL's Sales No it wouldnt.
As long as you only turn it clockwise.
Now its time to replace mine
Wish I saw this before I spent the $10 on the tool
If you do this which was amazing thanks I definitely recommend using some type of wd40 or pb blaster to lube it up. The belt will tear doing this.
Pb blaster or wd40 on a belt its a horrible idea.
