I have a 1987 Volvo 240 sedan that I am replacing the belt one. The problem I have ran into is with the A/C compressor belt. I have taken of the tensioner bolt on top and loosened the 2 pivot bolts on the bottom but I cannot find any more bolts. The compressor will not budge and I am thinking it is because I am missing a bolt somewhere, I just don't know where. Is it just three bolts used to loosen the compressor to pivot into position for belt placement? Any help will be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

 

There are four bolts, one is really hard to see.

 

The fourth one was hiding on me too.

I just did all 3 belts since the a/c belt is a b**** to take off.

 

From a piece of mind standpoint, I think it's always nice to know that all the belts are new and were changed at the same time.

 

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BUDDY.

what i did was i took out the front bottom nut and bolt. that made it maneuverable enough to slip a belt on and off.


GOOD LUCK!

 

I found the hidden bolt! I appreciate your guys help.

THANKS!
