1 - Turn it via the power steering pump? 2 - Yes. It's just good insurance to change the tensioner when replacing the chain (as well as the rail).

2 questions - 1st - Looking around the front of the engine, it looks near impossible to get a socket on the crank bolt to turn it. I guess I can either remove the radiator and fan or bump the engine until it gets to #1 TDC - is that a correct assumption? 2nd, while I don't believe my TC is bad at 114k miles, at some point in the future it will need to be replaced. Is it appropriate to go ahead and replace the TC tensioner at the same time?
