You'd probably want to talk to someone that works for Acura or Honda for that.  They may be able to get you a better deal.

Yeh, I confused you with Skippy.  Woops.

Who's the guy with the $30 tensioner?

No problem. Well, I was looking up part numbers. The TSX, Accord, and CR-V uses the same belt tensioner.

Sorry for bumping this old thread, but I want to prevent this problem from even starting. Where should the auto tensioner indicator be located? Here is a pic of mine with Ralco underdrive pulleys and reused OEM Accord belt:



Judging from what Dave said, mine doesn't seem too far off. Would I be ok with it like this?
