Hey all!

 

Im doing the infamous timing belt/water pump replacement and have almost dissected all the way down. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to loosen the tension on the belt that is connected to the harmonic balancer. I have a picture of it. Can anyone help?

Belts and tensioners

Now for this wonderful tensioner.. unfortunately I didn't snap a picture of the bolt you must loosen but if you've gotten this far then you are mechanically inclined enough to figure out which bolt must be loosened to allow for the tensioner bolt to release tension.

I think this is a picture of that tensioner bolt. It's hard to reach and you'll do well to make this:
