To change the belt, the prop has to be removed. To change the alternator, as soon as you loosen the holding bolt and the belt tensioning nut & bolt, the belt will slip right off.

In my ongoing quest to track down my electrical gremlins, I am going to remove my alternator and have it tested, as well as check all my connections and crimps (and may just buy a new one). This is a dumb question, but in my years of racing bikes and tinkering with cars, I have never had to remove an alternator (yes shocking I know). Are there any tips/tricks for removing the belt and the alternator on the plane (mine is an O-320). Thanks for any advice.
