How do you replace the alternator tensioner on an 83 300SD?
The tensioner screw on mine is really bent, and I heard that they can break when they are like that, so I went and got another bracket from a 240D to replace it. But, the old one is different and I can't get it off. Instead of the bolt that goes though the alternator being out in from the front, the tensioner part is a stud, and it just has a nut on the back. I dont see how it comes off without breaking the bracket, and now Im not sure if the one I got to replace it is right since it is a bit different. Any suggestions?
