Complete Waste of Money!

Using this tensioner, our team found that it was incredibly difficult to install. Although it felt secure at first it quickly lost tension and began to slip, causing a horrible rattling noise in our engine..

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Difficult installation, lost tension quickly
