I am about to try to replace my timing belt. The Haynes manual and the AutoZone website instructions both say to obtain a "tensioner spring" from a dealer. The AutoZone write-up even seemed to have a part number. Here is Autozone sentence that had the part numbers:

"retaining bolt (W700001-S309) into the hole provided in the cylinder block and place the tensioner spring (6L277)"

I couldn't find the part on teamfortparts.com, so I submitted an inquiry into their inquiry form, and, while they are very nice and helpful, they can't find seem to find the part. Does anyone know if the above part numbers (W700001-S309 and 6L277) are right? Do you even need this part?

Thanks for your help!
