just replaced my cambelt tensioner on the V6 along with all the other ancillaries. i bought a gates tensioner this time , instead of the I.N.A standard. it fitted ok and came with the pin preloaded and ready to fit. i just wondered if the gates version also has an oil damper as well as a spring . ? it is just one long shaft in appearance against the I.N.A version , which has a radial type bowl at the base, and the gates does not. has anyone else used one ? ..
