My '92 has seems to have developed an irritating feature -- I can't release the tension on the serpentine belt. Standard procedure is to grab the tensioner pulley by the bolt, then rotate the pulley CCW to release tension. And that used to work just fine, but what else can happen if you rotate a standard thread bolt CCW? The bolt breaks loose and comes out. That's what mine has started doing, the bolt comes loose instead of rotating the pulley. Anybody else seen this? What did you do about it?
