After a timing belt has been placed on the pullys, crank the engine by the crank bolt clockwise with a wrench and this will remove all the slack to the tensioner. The tensioner pulley can then have some pressure applied to the belt, then tighten it down. V6 models have a spring tension sysem that tensions the belt automaticly.


Good tip. I could have use this when I was doing the belt last time. Maybe on the V6 next time.
