[QUOTE="just starting, post: 559480, member: 14279"] Did that , but the tensioner has to come out and is a pain to get back in because it is under pressure and in a stupid spot under the air con which is difficult to move. They originally have a pin to hold the piston back when you first put them in and that gets taken out once fitted. The belt is tight to fit and you have to fit all pulleys except one,put the belt on and then squeeze the last pulley on. With the engine still in the car ,there is not much room to move and the cam pulleys are under pressure and can slip even when clamped. Once it is all together you have to turn the motor over by hand twice and if it all lines up again , it is right to go. I got it right first time, but it was a pain.They are a complicated vehicle to work on. [/QUOTE]
