I don't use the post spring for my post98 but I do know that I had to pull the intake gear to get some slack after the tensioner was loose and push it back when the belt was tightened.
Crank the belt a few times by hand to see what the belt does when it turns the gears.
I took my belt off over a dozen times and found that putting it on the intake gear first was the easiest way.
Also don't put it fully on one gear and try to get the other side on. It won't work. Slip on about 1/4 inch then try the otherside.

The only jackass here is someone who is doing a head job using his "uncle" as a referrence rather than the damn manual.
I'll bet that if you forked out $8 to by the god-damned CD Manual MADE BY FORD FOR IT'S FIELD MECHANICS, you wouldn't end up in the crap-pot you find yourself in now.
I tried to warn you to get a shop manual and to FOLLOW IT TO THE LETTER when at least REBUILDING the engine, but obviously you didn't.
don't get pissy because your being an ignorant buffoon!

you must be bored if you feel the need to come in my thread and show your a$$
for one I do have a ford cd manual, infact the one todras is selling. And my uncle has been a mechanic for 20+ years so he obviously has experience in the field. I can read the stupid cd 20,000 times, it doesn't change the fact that I am not a mechanic. Its obvious to see, and if it bothers you so much get your dumba$$ out here and fix it yourself. I'm doing what I can, I'm gonna f*ck up many times, its all apart of learning and I doubt the first job you ever did on your car was changing a headgasket so don't expect me to do something perfect that I have never done before. With or without the Ford cd it is not going to change anything...
I'm am not pissy at all, I am glad I worked on my car because it has given me plenty of experience and I have learned alot...f*cking up is just apart of the game...and well if that bothers you then you can kiss my a$$ really cuz I could care less. But thanks for your interest in my project...
