stevejannicole Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 :D At last, the mystical realm of the tensioner can be revealed. When I first got the afore mentioned item I thought.'Hello, there's a threaded hole behind the wheel. I wonder if I have to remove said wheel before bolting the thing to the block'. After getting the car over a pit at work and looking at it from a different angle, I noticed that the bolt enered from behind the tensioner. Thoughts along the line of 'DERR' and 'PR*%%' flashed through the old noggin. No need to dimantle tensioner, just raise the car up enough to get behind the tensioner and the job is quite straight forward. Good luck to any one about to do this job, and thanx to all those on this forum who helped with advice. ;) Quote

Guest stesully Posted January 16, 2007 Report Posted January 16, 2007 I would just like to say thank you very much :) . I had to replace my tensioner and was banging my head against the wall in frustration of how the god forsaken thing would come off. I am glad I found this site. I have just finished refitting the new one, even though it is 11 at night. I have been trying since 6 this evening and now I know how to do it there was no way that thing was going to stop now. I also thought it would be a nice surprise for my wife in the morning. Thank you again Quote
