Hopeing to change cambelt, wp, aux belt etc. on the Mrs' pug next week.

It has a different aux-belt tensioner than mine which has the old system with the 'hydraulic piston and spring' with the black boot cover.

1) Where do I grab it to push back and loosen the belt to take-off.

2) How does it lock into place (square pin again?) Pic showing hole would be great.

Cheers

Yes I think it is but do you grab the bolt?

On mine it has two square holes on the assembly; one to put a 3/8" drive bit in it, and the other to slot-in a square pin (door handle) to lock it.

I don't want to have to say: "I've got some good news and some bad news..." to her again. Smile

Is it the type with a T50 in the centre, and a 24mm nut round the edge?

Undo the T50 with the socket and an 8mm spanner (as usually you cant get a ratchet on the end of it) then just move it upwards

This is the aux belt tensioner not cam belt yes?

I think it has a nut in the middle of the roller, do I just grab on there with a spanner and push back?

And where's the locking slot?
