How do remove the drive belt on a 16 hp B&S Vanguard? I don't see any adjustment screws to losen it.

I moved the engine towards the tranny by loosening the mounting bolts.

Just walk it off the driven pulley (one on the tranny). you have to twist it to get it between the body and the pulley. It is snug, but will come off without loosening anything.

Hey mike-this is fred's advice not mine but I tried it when he told us to and it works wonders-Put belt dressing on that belt before you put it back on.
