A/C Belt Install 200 1985

Reassembling car after timing belt change. Having difficulty reinstalling the a/c belt. I managed to get it off by loosening a few nuts/bolts on the pump but I cannot find a way to get the pump loose enough to properly install the belt. Also it appears I will need to align the pump to make sure the belts are not torqued.

If anyone can walk me through this I would greatly appreciate it.

walk it on 200 1989

This may not seem like a real "profesional" way to do this,but it works for me. Have someone at the key inside. Remove the coil wire so car wont start. Have person inside tap the key while you 'walk on' the belt. As I said, worked for me.

HOWEVER-----Art has a diagram shows how to loosen a "hidden bolt" to loosen up the A/C.
