Remember not to over tighten it , the early waterpump won’t like over tension and it won’t stop the new belt from stretching anyway

Thanks, I remember when I first bought the vehicle, the belt kept squealing so I tightened it up, a bit to much I think because the water pump started leaking from the impeller, had to change the water pump which was my first introduction to T25 repairs and maintenance, so will be extra cautious this time.
