Message	Thank you for the offer and advice. If I can tighten it up with just the tensioner to see if she "runs", I'll probably go that route as I'm sure it's a lot easier than replacing it. I have a feeling if I can do that and the car drives well, I'll probably have enough maintenance to do that replacing the belt and tensioner would be in line anyways. I am far from a mechanic, and am trying to learn as I go. Seems I may have jumped in head first in the deepest end here though. Any advice on how to do this?
