This type of tensioner... how does it undo?
« on: 27 May 2013, 12:10:59 »



it looks like an auto tensioner to me but someone on a Hyundai forum (the car its attached to) said it had two bolts and one was a slider and you moved the PAS pump up to tension it.  :-\

Is the arrowed one sprung? If not, its likely to be tensioned manually (by moving a component, usually alternator)
