I don't know right now will probably have to look at taking front end of engine off again to satisfy my curiosity. The tensioner was set up with nice gap and engine turned over etc a few turns then checked again, socket head screw tightened up for sure and small locating pin for tensioner piston slid out nicely as per usual.
Would like to understand if tensioner is hydraulic and spring or just spring, if hydraulic perhaps a check valve or visco jet inside playing up inside it which is inhibiting the plunger returning giving high tension due to fluctuation in belt tension as the engine turns
