I've replaced the timing belt on my Diesel Westy and I'm having trouble getting the proper tension on the belt. I think I've got the procedure right (thanks Loren B.) I've tried using a set of snap-ring pliers, but I'm finding it hard to keep pressure on the pliers, keep the tensioner in the right spot and tighten the nut all at the same time. Thanks for any help. >> If you can't find the right tool, as a last resort use two nails, stick them in the two holes and use a screwdriver to pry it up. Had to do this once on the side of the road once. Crude but it works:) Steve
