Default Porken Tensioner question

Porken Tensioner question:

I tried a few searches and could not find any write up on the installation of the PK Tensioner.

I have installed the tensioner but wanted to see more illustration of the sensor and wire set-up.

I have a long zinc piece with two holes and a wigit. I believe i understand where the widgit goes but the other piece i am unsure.

Needless to say, any help would be appreciated. thanks jpc

The L-shaped terminal mounts to the water pump.

The dog-bone shaped thing replaces the water pump bracket if you have a S4-up water pump (else it's a keychain).

Im guessing i don't have a S4 pump because one of the holes is not tapped.

If so do i need another bracket to ground the unit?

You don't have to use the dog bone but it's neat he includes it.

Ok then, do i just need to connect the L widget to the water pump bolt and im good? Plus do i need to install the long connecting tube which is frozen on my older water pump. I noticed some of the kits had welded tube but mine has nothing. I purchased the kit that eliminates the air pump.

Yep, put the widget on a bolt closest to where the factory wire comes out of the center cover (where the factory sensor harness connects) and then don't forget to plug that wire on to it.

If you have an early pump you will want to use one of the allen headed bolts to seal the water hole.
