Message does it matter how long the tensioner sits with the retention bolt
installed?

The tensioner is brand new, installed on the engine, ran for
probably 3 minutes. Now the timing belt and all the timing belt
hardware have been removed.

Wondering if any damage would be caused if the tensioner sat
with the retention bolt installed for some time. I really don't want
to purchase a new one since this one is practically new.

I have nightmares about that happening...I'd be the poor bastard you'd hear about on the news that gets killed by a softball-size chunk while spreading out my body over the hood and screaming "Nooo!" (Having a conversation about hail damage) - BradZ (FL) on March 25, 2005 at 9:56 PM

Tell your friend that you could take a dump, light it on fire and that would be hotter shit than his car. Probes suck, that's just all there is to it. - 300ZXpert (someday) on April 04, 2005 at 11:35 PM
