I am looking for either a serpentine belt map or a how to on putting one on since my 91 eagle talon 2.0 snapped one the other day and I noticed that there isnt a map under the hood as to how the belt should run, any help would be appreciated thanks.
 
You could buy a manual and that would answer your question.

There are 3 accessory belts in the engine bay. One for the A/C, one for the power steering pump, and one for both the alternator and water pump.

Searching is good also.
Alternator Belt: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=181954&highlight=alternator+belt

Power steering belt is pretty straight forward. NOTE: the alternator belt must be removed to install or remove a power steering belt. Two 14mm bolts on the pulley side, one on the opposing side. Line up the holes in the pulley with the bolts, loosen them. Push the pump towards the rear of the car. Hook the new belt on there, push the pump back to front of the car, and retighten the bolts.

A/C Belt: Loosen the two 12mm bolts holding the tensioner bracket on. Loosen the tensioner bolt for the belt (on top of the bracekt, vertical bolt) and then the bolt holding the pulley in place. Do not take any of the bolts out -- it is unnecessary to do so. Pull the bracket towards the fender and slip the belt over the pulley. Then loop it around the A/C compressor and around the crank pulley, retighten your bracket, then tension the belt. I forget if the A/C belt is in front of or behind the alternator belt, so you may need to remove the alternator belt to install this belt also.
 
Ok then I guess its a V belt, all I know is that its the longer one of the two thats on it, and by the looks of it the belt goes through the side engine mount. Is there a easy way to get it on or do I need to drop the mount to get it on. I lost my power steering and my water pump its that belt. Never put a belt on a a car like this so I'm not sure how to go about doing it. Also i guess its the alternator on the same belt since the car wont turn over.

Thanks
 
Ok that link is nice but it only tells you if a belt slips off or needs tighten, what i am asking is do i need to take the engine mount off to put a new belt on since mine totally shredded off and isnt there anymore.

Thanks
 
man if your belt shredded i hope you caught it before it went to far. these cars and timing are very picky LOL
