    88 Grand Marquis belt replacement

    Trying to replace the serpentine belts on an 88 Grand Marquis 5.0L - Alt belt is simple - loosen alt bolts & slide alt in .  The longer belt which controls all other accessories has a 1/2 square slot  in the tensioner bracket to insert a 1/2" breaker bar to release the tension for belt removal however it wont move.
    Is there tensioner bracket bolts that must be loosened first  b-4  the tensioner  relaxes to get the belt off?  Couldnt see anything from the top side.

    Just a bad rusted tensioner, needs to be replaced.
