Last night I picked up the van and drove it home keeping an eye on the
temp gauge. It rose to just above the light in the middle of the gauge. It
usually stops in the middle. When I got home I heard a sound coming from
the engine compartment. Holding my breathe I opened the compartment and saw
that the coolant was boiling in the resevoir. I removed the lid off my
expansion tank ( wasnt boiling there ) and it quickly subsided. I took a
look in the back today and I believe I see the correct bolts/nuts to
loosen, but I have 3 belts, is this because I have ac? Just wondering what
to loosen to get the pulley on the left side to move inward so I can remove
that belt as well. Unless I'm missing something and still only need to
remove the belt for the power steering?
