Timing Belt Spring Tentioner Variations
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2025 12:10 pm
Hi all,
Did the spring tensioner have multiple variations? The one I have doesn't have the holes for the spanner tool. It's not easy getting good leverage with the spanner tool in the slots it does have, I ended up breaking a pin off the tool trying.
I was able to adjust by pressing counter clockwise on the roller bolt using a socket and wrench, is this ok? Could it potentially loosen the bolt by doing so.
Thanks
