Got my tensioner etc to do tomorrow, obviously the new one has the locking pin in but whats best way to slacken the old one? Same as it would be any other engine ?(socket on the pully and turn)? Only it looks a bit tight up there to what im used to lol. Wondering if anyone had a trick or anything?

Ben.

cheers for replys guys i did see them just as was about to start. Very Happy

releasing the tension wasn't a problem in the end, just getting to one of the bolts i found a bit of git (was hidden by bottom pully) but all done now, no longer sounds like it has a super charger type noise packed under the bonnet lol.
