99contourSE
CEG'er
I was wondering if I could get some advice on putting a new tensioner assembly on my 99 contour SE. It has the 2.0 4Cyl VCT. I am trying to figure out the easiest way to do this. I see most people do it through the top. I was thinking about just pulling off the front tire on the passenger side and then pulling the splash guard right there thinking it would give me nearly direct access to the tensioner assembly and direct access to the crankshaft pulley. I was thinking maybe it would be easier this way so maybe I could just route the belt and then slip it over the crankshaft pulley when it is ready to be tensioned. Any help is appreciated. Thank you guys.
