Huh? What tensioner? If you take the belt off, aren't all the other accessories driven by the other belts? The water pump should also have the power steering belt drving it. I don't have the '90 graphic, so I guess they could've changed something, but that's unlikely. You should be able to toss the pump and belt.

The 91 runs a serpentine belt like all other vehices.
As for pulling the pump, you may want to just get a new one if you are in a emissions controlled area. Because it is part of the emissions system, you will be fined for not having it.

I have done this to my 91 and the only way to do it is to get the belt tensioner pulley off of a magnum engine 92 or newer and then find a belt. if you have a junk yard near by they might have one you will also need the washer from the magnum pulley.
If you have a carquest by you the part number for the belt is K060888 if you dont have a carquest by you the mesurements are 21mm x 2270mm 6 rib belt this belt is with air conditioning if you dont have it youll have to guess and check but this is a good starting point without air.
The pulley on the magnum is a ribed pulley while the one that is on the truck right now is a smooth pulley. It requires a slight re roughting of the belt everything still works normally and i have had no problems since.
