Have the tensioner pulley and belt off (proceeding to water pump replacement...) but am wondering if the tensioner arm is seized? Is the arm something that I should be able to turn by hand? No prying etc? I have seen a great diagram showing the tensioner itself, etc. but have had limited luck finding a good thread if I actually need to replace the tensioner.
Thanks in advance.
