1982 Volvo DL Compressor Belt Change Topic is solved

How do you change the compressor belt on a 1982 Volvo DL?
I see three screws that attach the compressor to a base plate facing the engine. I assume you loosen these 3 screws. Is this the right way to go?

Welcome to Matthew's Volvo Site.

almost 7 years and no answer?

You didn't have to wait that long!!!

A/C belt tension is adjusted by installing or removing shims fitted between the two halves of the crankshaft pulley.

The correct procedure for changing the A/C belt is to remove the outer section of the outer pulley on the crankshaft by removing the (6) 6mm fasteners usually 4 bolts and 2 nuts.
