Hey mate, just a quick question you might know the answer to. I’ve recent picked up a t6 that had a timing belt change done but I noticed a bit of a whine coming from it, it looks as though the tension is to tight and the pin doesn’t sit in the middle on the tensioner. Can I adjust the tensioner (without letting the belt slip off etc.) slightly without affecting the timing of the engine? Or does adjusting the tension require the pins etc. to go back into the pulleys? Thanks!
Good point. Yes you should be fine just go move the pointer to the middle with pit locking the cam. You can always lock the cam and pump while you do it if you have the pins. Keep posted. You can do it 👍

How many times do you have to rotate the engine thanks good work
Rotate the crankshaft two full turns which will turn the camshaft a full turn. You can do it 👍
