• 2). Slip the drive belt over the alternator pulley. Install the two alternator bolts using 14 mm and 17 mm wrenches. Torque the 14 mm bolt to 18 foot-pounds and the 17 mm bolt to 40 foot-pounds. This will also tighten the drive belt.
  
  
• 3). Reconnect the alternator connector and wiring by plugging it in. The wiring will make an audible click sound when properly in place.
