I went to unbolt the tensioner because the pulley bearing is shot and the darn Torx head stripped on my first try. Mind you, I didn't just blindly start wrenching. I researched it here, got the proper tools, took my time to get a good hold on it. Who ever came up with the Torx anyways? So what are my options? Even unbolting the engine mount at this point to get a little more clearance is probably useless. Can I have someone weld a socket on there and take it off that way? I was also changing the idler pulley, but the "correct" pulley I got was too big so now I have to go find the right pulley before I can put the belt back on! Any insights would help greatly.
