Taking off alternator
 

Ive got my alternator off, after a whole lot of BS, such as having to remove the oil filter to get it out.

Now the wire clip is still plugged in, & i cant get the damn thing out.

Someone please help, all i need off is that clip.

wire clip? There should just be a plastic push tab connector. If you push the tab in, the connector should pop off/out.

Thx random, i noticed after i went back out, that the little push tab was broken.

I had to put a screwdriver in where the tab wuold have pushed the clip in to get it out.

yea doing the alternator was a PITA wait till u put it back on and have 2 set the tentions.. now ur tensioner bolt shouldnt move... hyundai set mine with locktite for some reason... so 2 get it on ur gonna have to push the alternator fwd until it fits.. i acomplished this with a long metal rod that i used 2 pry the alternator fwd on its pivit pt...

I just pulled the oil filter off. Pulled that lil bioch off and strapped on a new one... no problems. Was I just lucky or do I have a problem with tension that I dont know about?

Just make sure you don't OVER tighten the belt. It can wear out the bearings in the device (water pump, Alt, ac condensor, etc..etc.) and it can also wear out the belt much faster, in addition to putting excess drag on the motor.
