Going to replace my aux belt tensioner today. Any tips?
#1
Looks an awkward bugger. Will i take off the top engine mount and drop the engine down on a jack? Leave the lower engine mount in place?

My hands are massive so any extra space is a bonus hahaha.

Then i suppose once i see it it will be easy removed from the wheel arch?

Thanks!
