Despite having read the proper procedure a million times, and having just replaced the belt tensioner 3 weeks ago, I just screwed up. I figured out that not only did I have a radiator leak after I got everything put back together, but I also had a fan clutch pulley that sounds like it's about to go bad. When I went to loosen the belt tensioner, I forgot to loosen the 19mm bolt first. Have I definitely ruined the belt tensioner or is there hope?
