ok my tensioner is getting abit shagged i think on the
water pump etc belt, because its abit more loose than it should be,
and it squeeks a bit.

What parts should i replace for this? just the tensioner? as the belt was replaced 10,000 ks ago ish
also how hard is this job? has anyone done it before?
1jz vvti in case you haven't seen my build

inspect the belt dude, stuffed tensioner will tear shreds out of a belt

just look at the outer edges and you will soon see


but i personaly would do every thing

belt
tensioner
waterpump
fan belt

also fyi its cheaper ( or was ) to purchase the whole water pump and back housing as a unit rather than the water pump,

if you want this stuff let me know i will sort it alot cheaper than most
