There is no adjustment to the tightness. The idler wheel holds the proper tension.

CORRECTION: There is adjustment and it's found on the Power Steering Pump Bracket. It's hard to give a measurement of "how tight", but if I grab my belt between the Main Crank pulley and the Alternator, I can flex my belt about 1/2"in either direction with some good pushing. If it wasn't adjustable, you wouldn't be able to get the belt on the tensioner pulley to begin with.
