I Have installed a new alternator and belt, but i dont know how to set up the tension on the belt, i believe it is a n auto tension pulley and i can loosen the nut on the pulley but nothing happens after this, what do i need to do now?

there should be a slot in the tensioner where you put in an ALLEN KEY .. and tension up the belt then lock up the bolt !!
