i was responding to the comment jdemas made in post #7 about the absent one in my serarch of belt pics, i looked at a bunch - i saw what i thought was the pic in question, and it was missing the idler (turns out it was a pic of somebody's belt job missing that idler) - the one he linked to does have that idler on it, hiding behind the hose
i also do not have the one you are talking about, though that does look like it would be a good one to have in there

Tom, there is a stud in the block on 968's that would need to be tapped in order for it to work. The swivel mechanism is completely different. The tensioner works on this stud. I will try to take pictures as I am in the middle of a belt change.

Tom....
But I believe that the timing belt interval has now been changed on the 968 to 45k or 4 years. I wouldn't go 60k!!
I think that in order to try and use the hydraulic tensioner you would have to also fit bracket 944.105.173.08.

Guys...
At the top of the tensioner lever... there is a small round tan colored "pad" made of plastic or ceramic... and the hydraulic tensioner plunger pushes into it.
This ceramic/plastic pad is not listed as a replacement part in the PET. Anyone know if this part can be had separately?

Mine looks like it has a hairline crack in it. Do you really have another? I would be very appreciative if you have one!

This thread has been "good" for Jim's "post count" which has increased by about an order of magnitude. I'm sure he wishes it were otherwise though and his car was back on the road!
