GC8 Timing Belt Tensioner
Just wondering what type of tensioner I will need to replace my current one, as going to do the timing belt shortly.
Im told there are 2 different types but I cant see far enough behind the timing belt covers to have a loook Car is a november 97 built my98 wrx. This is as far as i can see, Water pump blocks everything to the left.

If it ain't broke, dont fix it... I dont see why you would need a new tensioner?
If you are doing the timing belt yourself, I'd suggest dropping the radiator to provide better access to the belts |

if the tensioner is broken it will sound like a big end, you want to check the idler pulley after the tensioner though, they wear out

tensioner
The car is 13 years old,has not had a timing belt done, so if you do the timing belt you might as well change the waterpump and tensioner,I think the 97 tensioner is the long black cylinder type.
