replacing engine drive belt. question

I picked up belt from local parts store made by gate.

Question. Why do we need to remove sevo pump wheel? What's the point?

No need to loosen or remove any pulleys/wheels. Here is a link to the ECS how-to, just release the tension on the tensioner wheel. It was super simple but I needed a breaker bar to put enough force into the tensioner.

Done, 30min job, with few beers in between, -It was easier to slap the belt on than taking it out, I did not touch servo pump at all, I mastered taking air box out and putting back in long time ago which takes me 15sec. WHAT i also found missing grommet, from the airbox it was just chilling behind belt...
