The inline 6 3.2L has a timing chain. The V8 has a timing chain.

Tony, is it pretty straight forward on replacing the serpentine belt on the driver's side of engine? I noticed in ALLDATA Diy that they talk about using a 3mm pin / hex wrench to "hold" the tensioner puller. Any good videos out there of this job? I can't find one on YouTube. Jeff
