I've had the new accessory (serpintine) belt laying in my trunk for about 2 months now, so it's time to finally do this. Where do I ge the bolt from that fits the tensioner to release the belt?
bump for this. ive had mine laying around forever and would also like to get it done. wut size allen bolt etc. is necessary??? thx. any special correct way to do it?
Just bought a pack of three at Lowes Hardware.
Get one that's long enough...about 2.5 inches long (make sure it's threaded all the way up to the head).
I like how the Bentley tells you how long but not the thread pitch. Someone chime in if I am wrong but it is 8mmx1.25 , isn't it? And I think 60mm is about as short as you want to go.

I don't think you usually have to worry about that with metric bolts.. just get an M8 x 80.
