Serpentine Belt Replacement 05 Honda Odyssey 3.5L

In this video I'll take you along as I go over the process of replacing the serpentine belt on an 05 Honda Odyssey 3.5L. This is a relatively simple job but, it can be difficult as the the working area is very tight and the tensioner can seem to be difficult to move. The tensioner used is not a typical spring loaded tensioner. You'll need to take your time when moving the tensioner. Constant pressure is key. You'll notice that the tensioner will slowly move. Just take your time.

Note: The technique used at the end to install the belt where I used a jack handle to extend the trow of the ratchet is not the correct way to use a ratchet. Use this technique at your own risk. Damage to tools may occur. I would actually recommend using a serpentine belt tool for this job.

Also, at about the 3:50 make I actually called the top "dummy nut" a fake bolt. I meant to say "dummy nut" and not fake bolt. Just to be clear. I'm sure you understood that though.
