I've got the old belt off, bought a 74" belt (continental if that matters), I've got it on (correctly as far as I can tell)... here's the problem, there's still slack and on the backside I'm resting against one of the engine plate studs (motor mount I guess?)... I've spent 6 hours so far....does anyone have pictures of what it should look like? aurorah.proboards.com/thread/2874/change-serpentine-belt-pics used that walkthrough and still stumped...

It is Tigger, thank you, I'm an idiot, spent too long out in the sun (burnt pretty bad), and got frustrated, after I came in and cooled down I realized that I had The wrong section of belt around the tensioner 😏🙄, went back out in the rain this morning to rectify that and realized the value of using the right tool for the job..was using a 3/8 extension to detension but just couldn't get enough off to get belt on because of how The extension was positioned in the hole, bought a 1/2" drive extension and had the gf help (God I love her, loves to help wrench), slid on no problem, thanks for the help guys! Sorry for the wall of text 😬
