I need to change my serpentine belt, however, I lack a proper diagram and steps needed to remove and replace the belt. Can you please advise? The diagram would be very beneficial as well as certain tools needed. Thank you :)

There should be a sticker under the hood that shows this. The tensioner pulley is spring-loaded. Hook a wrench or ratchet on the the bolt head or hole, and use that to remove the tension from the belt so it can be removed.

Most ford tensioners can be released with a half inch breaker bar, look for the square hole.
