Timing Belt Tension
Has anyone ever used the belt tensioner that is sold by Blaszak Precision Motorsports??? The tool made in Germany by a belt manufacture. He said the tension values for the belts have been comverted to this tool and it will work perfectly. The Cost for the tool is about $50 U.S. <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" />

I tried sourcing the tool from Napa and bout the wrong one:
[quote] You bought the wrong Kricket tool, just like I did. I had to return it back to Napa and get the Kricket 1 tool (KR1). I didn't find this out until a few days before actually requiring usage of it, but caught it in time to exchange it for the one with the correct tension range (30lbs to 100lbs?). You probably read the same post I did where the guy recommended the KR2 product instead of the correct KR1 tool. <hr></blockquote>
