Message	Normally you need to get all the timing belt covers and stuff off just to be able to access the tensioner. I don't know how you were able to access the belt easily without having to take all that stuff off unless someone purposefully left the covers off. Unfortunately what I've learned about the Z is that it's not been designed with maintenance in mind. Taking off the intake plenum or getting to the timing belt are both fairly substantial jobs... there's no way around it :-/ Be prepared.
