    Model #?; I can lookup a generic belt number probably.

    Yep, most likely. I just changed a sears belt twice.

    My snowblower has belt motion and a chain for the auger. The engine is in the middle of this.

    The engine bolts (slots in frame) tensions the chain for the auger and there is a separate tension mechanism for the belt. For bolts have to be loosened. Tensioned with something like a crowbar and tightened.

    I had to loosen the engine bolts and the belt tensioning bolts. Remove the chain and then the belt.

    Yours may be different. Need the model #. Diagram should be at www.searspartsdirect.com

    Can you take a picture of the area.

    Probably item #25 loosens on a slot with 4 bolts. Take a look.

    How easy is it to access this area?
