Subject: [MBZ] Serpentine Belt Tensioner Components


Hi! Just finished replacing the components of the belt tensioner - took
about 2 hours - removed the shroud and fan then the other pieces - but I
could figure out how to get the upper pivot off - thought it was a allen
bolt but closer inspection says no. But I looked at it closely and decided
it looked fine anyway and re-used it.  The lower tensioner pivot and the
spring and damper all had play in them and the engine is much quieter now.

Glad it's over ;-)
