Ok, so I've read several posts about this topic... Including:

I have the harmonic balancer, tensioner and a new accessory belt, as well as a new power steering belt. (belts are probably about 60k km's old)
My question is:
How "exactly" do I remove the accessory belt?
Twob4s, indicates in his post to "pry the serpentine belt tensioner and lift the belt...."
Does the belt tensioner "give" when you press firmly on it? I looked at the tensioner, it doesn't seem to move, from what I recall. (parts are not in front of me at the moment -- I'm at work)
If you can't already tell, I'm a little nervous about attempting this without detailed instructions (and/or pics).
I do have the bentley books, but from the posts I read the huge 3297 lever doesn't seem to be needed.
thanks in advance.
Richard
