The guy who did the alternator belt tensioning adjustment on the
neon should be taken outside and shot. You get to it from under the car,
reaching your hand up over the (I think it is) alternator, to a bolt you
can't see.
In this day and age the idea of seperate belts makes no damn sense to me.
Serpentine belts are _so_ much easier to deal with...
