Hi everyone...I need help adjusting the diesel pump belt on my 2002 Van the Haynes manual is awful for this.
I have slackened of the diesel pump pulley wheel (3 x 10mm bolts) and i have locked back the tensioner pulley.
After releasing the tensioner i either have slack on the tensioner side and not on front side or the other way round..I have been at it for hours now.
The new belt is the same as the old one (teeth counted) the pump is locked solid with a pin.
Hope you can make sense of this.
Cheers

Sorry you are stuck now though. I can only say tht when I did the tention on my tentioner I had the aultomatic tentioner and I was surprised to find that as I tightened it to what I thought would be right it then goes lose and you can turn it and it will do it all over and over, it dose not fill tight enought bu it is. if you read and do as the manuel says after turning the engine over six turns all should be right. All the best I know how you fill been there done that sort of thing. but my van is running great now. was worth the worry.. Cheers Pete
