So did you replace the whole kit that relocates the tensioner and idler pulley? It comes with the backing plate and all that?if not that's what you have to do they had a lot of problems with those early tenisors failing and bending valves. Also to time it correctly you need the timing kit. Otc makes 1 that is reasonable.
