Anyone ever had to change the fan belt tensioner mechanism (bolt)? I screwed it out to get the new belt on and now when I tighten, it won't pick up the thread to tension the belt. I was thinking about a small bearing puller to try and push it up to pick up the thread. Any suggestions?? How hard is it to get it off, looks difficult but I'm a bit of a novice!!
 
Might help Paul if you let people know on what car we are talking about.
 
Good idea!!
