before you do anything else, lock the motor. you do that by sticking an 8mm pin / bolt thorough the hole marked OT on the pulley.

which tensioner did you poke back in? the one that goes in sideways, or the one that goes straight up from the ground?

I got the tensioners figured out now based on the rings they have....thank you!

When I install the tensioner for banks 4-6 into the left-side of the engine ...... the IMS moves slightly from side too side ......... but not downward unfortunately.

Keep in mind that I have NOT loosened the tensioner on the front of the motor located under the ac compression yet.

The motor is still at top dead center according to the pulley.


Do you think by removing the tensioner on the front of the motor it may move downward a little? ........or is that a long shot?
