When you pull the front timing belt covers off, the tensionor is held by a large spring, pull the spring off, reset the belt, put tension on the tensioner, rotate the crank 720 degrees, if the timing is still smack on, put the spring back on, and happy camping.

i dunno what richard was talking about but, yeah you need to unbolt the tensioner, and compress it with a vice grip, or if you don't have one you can use a G clamp but the "piston" will rotate and make it alot harder to put the hex key thru it
