How do I raise the seat on a 26 inches huffy tundra bike?
There is a black nut and bolt looking thing under the seat, but there is also a silver bolt a little further below. I have a wrench, but I do not want to twist the wrong one and break the bike… So please be as specific as possible.

you wann loosen the one a little under the seat.
The lower one is for the height, if you loosen that you should be able to slide the seat post up from the frame. Note that the seat post should have a line on it, do not raise it too high or there won’t be enough inside the frame tube.
The one right under the seat would be to adjust the angle of the seat, not the height.
Theres a nut on a the collar of the tube (seat tube) that comes up towards your butt from the pedals. It tightens the tube around the post that comes down from your saddle. That’s the one you want to loosen to raise the seat.
It is the lower silver one, turn it counterclockwise, lift the seat to the desired height and re-tighten the bolt. The top bolt allows you to adjust the angle of the seat. As long as you twist either of them counterclockwise to loosen, and clockwise to tighten you won’t break anything. If you pull up on the seat with the top bolt loosened, you’ll simply pull the seat off the post it sits on and you can put it right back on.
