Default tensioner/drive belt

I have a '98/ 3.0 liter and the drive belt is noisy. Is there a tensioner and tensioner roller ? Both seem like they have
a little play.

Has anyone changed the motor mounts ? They look pretty straight forward.... is that true ?

thanks,
Bob

Yep, You should replace them both. Use a wrench on the tensioner pulley bolt to take tension off
while you remove and put on the new belt. It's really pretty simple. If you don't have a service book, draw yourself a diagram of the belt layout BEFORE taking it off.

Hey yea i'm trying to replace mydrive belt as it's a bit worn but i can't figure out where the tension pulley bolt is. I have a 96 Ford Mondeo 1980cc automatic. Any help or even a diagram would be appreciated.
