I am trying to replace the power steering belt on a 1995 Honda Accord with V6, and the problem is how to disconnect the engine mount that goes through the middle of the belt -- no manuals seem to address this. There are three bolts on this mount, and if I disconnect them do I have to jack up the engine to keep it from falling? Also, when I disconnect the mount, will the engine mount fold back easily, or what do I need to do? The car has 140,000 miles on it.

Put a jack under the engine on that side and take off the three bolts. Once they are out raise the jact a little to allow the belt to slip through and then reverse for the new belt. The engine is in little danger of falling or dropping.
