Remove the upper radiator shroud. Remove the fan by undoing the 4 bolts that hold it to the water pump. Using a wrench turn the tensioner pulley hex nut to release tension on the belt. Remove the belt and replace with a new one. Refer to diagram for routing detail. http://www.fixya.com/support/r5914885-isuzu_serpentine_belt_routing_diagram

All u need to do is put a wrench on the tention pully and turn it clockwise... this will relive the tention take off the old belt ....put on new one. repeat relive pressure again ...slip it on pully... and relese tention..... done! :)
I believe that you need a 14MM or 15 MM wrench a long one would be the best since the spring is hard to move. There should be a nut on the tensionerpully #6 on the picture below. This is where you need to move the tensioner with one hand and pull the belt off with the other. It might be easier with 2 people. Remember the belt routing it will help when installing the new belt. Good luck.
this is a V6 with a/c, with shorter belt for no a/c go straight from 6 to 5 in diagram above.
