You are right, the V70 was easier. This 1995 was painful in regards to getting the T belt off. The lower plastic cover, which I don't know if I can even remove, gives just 1/8 in clearance to get the belt off/on.

There is less than 3 inches between the tensioner pulley and the fender. That's tight. I need to check the engine mount, it might be letting the engine list to the passenger side.

Anyway, I will get a short breaker bar tomorrow and finish the job.
