Hi all.

Im currently changing my cam belt, and tensioner.
The new belt is in, I've got to the point of installing the tensioner, and the new one (which is supposed to be for my car) is completely wrong, the mounting holes are out by about 5mm, and it doesn't look like it will line up with where the other tensioner is, and i would have to remove the plastic cover which is on the side of the block for it so fit properly.
My original one, comes in 2 parts, the spring and the pulley part, the spring part fits over the cover.
But I have been trying to compress the spring but it isn't budging! I've tried WD40, heat and hitting with a hammer to try and loosen it but to no avail. I've tried compressing it in a vice and used other tools and nothing.
Am I doing that right? or is it shot?

What about the new tensioner?
Am I doing it wrong, am I missing something or is it jsut wrong?

This is the new tensioner I have, and belt.

Cheers.
Jason
