I just did the timing belt/water pump/auto tensioner/balancer belt...ect..ect.. on my 98 Prelude last weekend. I have a quick question for anyone who's done this, when I put the balancer belt adjustable pulley back on, how much tension should I have put on it? (You know how you're supposed to pull up and then tighted the adjusting bolt?)

I've had a strange whine which sounds like a bearing with too much tension on it?

Also is it possible to overtighten the adjusting nut?? My torque wrench wouldnt fit...
Thanks

 

if it is to the timing belt adjuster pulley, I do believe it is something like 16ftlbs. if its the actual crank pulley, than its something like 180ftlbs other than that each pulley will be a little bit different. but I think its one of the two you are referring to.
