Default How do you adjust drive belt tension on a g1

I replaced my belt the other day but it still seems pretty loose i can push down on it and it will move almost 3 inches is there a way to adjust this?

No way to adjust belt tention on a G1 to my knowledge. I'm pretty sure the engine is bolted down in place and not like the G2/G9.

I replaced both my belts on my 2 G1's and they were a knuckle buster getting them on, guess the old ones were stretched but wow what a difference.
