Recently my alternator died on me which is a story in itself but I am currently taking off the alternator but I am not sure which of the bolts i losen to loosen the alternator belt. Someone have mercy.

you have to pull back on the spring loaded tensioner this will release the tension on the belt so you can slip it off

Where is the spring loaded tensioner located. I can not find anything that looks spring loaded, everything i see is bolted to the block.

it is an idler pulley which holds tension on the belt you need to pull on it using a socket or belt tensioner tool...I think you need a repair manual....I do not know or wish to offend you but be sure your not in over your head on this project
