HINT:

1. When measuring the tension of a new belt, measure the tension immediately after installing it to the engine but before starting the engine.
   
2. A "new belt" is a belt which has been used for less than 5 minutes on a running engine.
   
3. A "used belt" is a belt which has been used on a running engine for 5 minutes or more.
   
4. After installing a new belt, run the engine for approximately 5 minutes and then recheck the tension.
