Another tip based on my bitter experience....after you've adjusted the tension on the belt, be careful when tightening up the pulley wheel nut.

I was a bit over-enthusiastic with the ratchet and sheared the bolt off. Just nip it up !!!

This happened the evening before L2B 2007 and I couldn't get the part in time.....had to leave the mini behind and went in my company Prius. OOHHHH the shame of it !!!!
