The aux belt tensioner in the PF is part of the timing belt cover. Its a complicated affair which runs on a pair of needle roller bearings which I had to remove to get it powdercoated



Two new bearings, and I made a tool to press them in to place



One of the bearings fitted



The tensioner, complete with massive spring just waiting to go sproing and break something / someone



Tensioner arm



Assembled view from the back.



I managed to put it together without scratching anything or the spring going sproing. I also fitted a new fan pulley bearing. I need this to finish the timing belt reassembly as the crank pulley locking tool fits in to the slot at the bottom of the cover



Fuel line rubber doodads now free of rust



They'll soak in rubber care solution overnight
