So yeah, i needed to take my lower timing belt cover off to get to my front main, so I had to take the tensor off. Putting it back on, the nut keeps spinning off. Now, the way its set up, its got a little insert going through the bearing that is still and contacts the adjustment bracket. Thats cool and all, so I keep looking at it and this grey shield **** that goes between the bolt that goes through the tensor and the nut securing the tensor is turning WITH the tensor, causing the nut to back off. Anybody else have this problem? Am I stupid and put it back together wrong?

Anyways, pictures are worth a thousand words... and JDM ones are worth 10,000



BTW, I took the grey cover **** off so the nut is directly touching the inside of teh bearing (part thats not spinning) and its working fine. Yeah.

 

actual stuff

 

It has been a while since I had my car torn down enough to where I had to tamper with the A/C. But I believe that there is a washer that goes between that weird shaped washer and bearing/tensioner. Although, I may be wrong. Look in your Helm's manual, or look on Majestic Honda, and see if there is a diagram.

 

Yeah that was a good idea. I need a 10mm washer.
