Hello, thank you for your time, I hope you can help me with this problem. We got a new accessory belt for our 98 Dodge Intrepid. I've managed to get the belt onto all the pulleys but cannot figure out how to tighten it.
Here's a diagram of the engine I found
http://arrc.epnet.com/...s/7000/79224G04L.gif
guides have me baffled by referring to "tensioner arms" and "free arm position." I can't find any kind of "arm", only two bolts, the adjusting and locking bolts. The adjusting bolt is connected to a square of metal behind the pulley that is solidly connected to the rest of the engine, and the locking bolt is simply in the middle of the pulley. They seem like ordinary bolts, they can be loosened and tightened and I cannot figure out how to use them to tighten the belt although I'm certain this pulley is the solution.
Any help is much appreciated

Loosen the locking nut by about 1 turn and then turn the adjusting bolt counterclockwise and the pulley will move in to loosen the belt.
For the A/C belt, there is one bolt in a slot that has to be loosened and the other ones that it pivots on need to be loosened just a little so they will pivot.

Yes, except for the part about loosening the lock nut. That still works the same.
