Setting timing belt tension

[RJ-92]

I don't have the little inch Lbs tool. I released the pressure on the bolt that holds the tensioner in place and rotated it ever so slightly clockwise. Probably 3 or 4*. just enough to release it from full tension. Anyone else not used desired tool when tightening the timing belt?

IIRC, Steve W. (projectSHO89) did a write-up of his procedure to set the ATX timing belt tension without the Rotunda tools. I'd recommend trying to search under his name and ATX tension, or maybe he'll see this and has the link handy.

For the MTX? Or was the write up for an ATX? This would bee needed for an MTX.

Thanx
