The hardest part of the job is the things mentioned above in the subtitle. In this 16+-minute video, Kent will go to some length to explain both on the bench and on the car how to deal with getting the belt off and back on. He will also explain why you may only need to replace the pulley rather than the full tensioner. If you opt to replace the whole unit, he will explain what you will need to do to pin the old tensioner to get it off the engine.
