I bought a 96 civic ex with a jackson racing supercharger on it. I replaced the belt just to be safe. I was reading the manual and it says on the tensioner bolt to TQ it to 90ft/lbs. How do you measure that on a phillips screw like that....it might be a stupid question.....also, the pulley that the tensioner is on...when i tighten the 17mm bolt that goes through it the other side spins...i cant really get it completely tight...im new to the supercharger thing so....is that pulley suppose to wiggle a little bit? it does because i cant tighten it.....the bolt on the other side cant be reached because of the engine bay area is to tight.......please help!

you don't, you do it with a torque wrench dude. and i don't think anything should wobble just like that, you can cause some serious damage to your motor. get it done right before your foot gets heavy on the gas pedal. good luck

 

You tension the belt to 90 ft/lbs not the bolt. Go to http://www.jacksonracing.com and download the instructions.
