Well, not really.
Last week I looked under the hood for an odd noise that what coming from the fan/fan belt and lo and behold, the belt tensioner worked itself loose from its mount, but not completely, and was holding on still. WTF, I said, how did that happen?!?!
Fortunately, I caught it in time and replaced the belt and tensioner. Anyone else have this failure of the tensioner? Also, how would I get a torque wrench in there to tighten it to spec? I had to use a shorty ratchet to tighten the new one in place. Thanks for any tips!!
