my 2001 ford taurus was in a major wreck and had a lot of it's original parts replaced in the front end. I don't have anything that shows the diagram of the serpentine belt. I find the same answer everywhere, look under your hood or around the radiator. Nothing will be there. I am in need of the diagram itself.
ok to both of you lets try this first is the belt still on enging if it is try what we do look at it study it then draw picture of it's routing,it dose work.
it depends on whether you have the dohc or the ohv because they have different layouts, i replaced the built in my old 96 dohc and it wasnt too hard, you have to have a certain tool that can loosen the tensioner pulley so you can get the old one off and the new one on. if you need a diagram it shouldnt be hard to find online.
