**PS: If you've never removed the belt tensioner before, you might want to scratch or paint a line across the joint between the tensioner and the engine so you can align it properly on reassembly. Otherwise, it is possible to have it turned too far (clockwise) upon tightening and you'll not be able to get the belt on...trust me.
Thanks Paul.......I wonder if that was my problem when I R&R'ed the tensioner and belt last year. I didn't mark the old tensioner as to its orientation to the block. In putting on the new one I could see that it could be installed wrong....even though it had a '' mounting tab'' on the back of it. I emailed Marc but he didn't think it would be possible as he never had a problem. The problem is that I"m a lot stupider than Marc and I had a hell of a time getting the belt over the last pully. I wrote it off as a ''tight belt'' . I hope I haven't screwed it up as it has been on the car that way for about a year now.
