Umm I have bit of a problem. I recently found that the tensioner pulley is responsible for a loud rattling noise. When trying to undo the pulley bolt I forgot about the left hand thread :bang:, so here I am lifting the pulley to the point the little plate on the tensioner popped off and the tensioner jumped forward a little bit. Now every time I lift the pulley the tensioner wants to come forward! :bang: :bang: :bang:
I tried hitting it back into place and putting the plate back on, but it just pops off again when you lift the pulley. Anyone had this problem before? Im thinking that theres a track or something it sits on and I will have to lift it up heaps again while someone else hits it back on? At the moment the pulley is resting on the power steering pump pulley. And if worst comes to worse and I have to replace the whole lot (I bloody hope not!), the power steering pump will have to be removed, and theres a mightly big spring sitting behind behind the tensioner pulley! Remove the power steering pump pulley and you have a health hazzard :whistling
It just makes my day when **** like this happens! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
