Today's lottery winner....

Just had a gentleman leave the garage. Funny noise he says. 2000 Jetta, bought used. Drives two hours to get here. Paint marks everywhere. Crank one tooth off. Has had one belt change (that he knows of) in 155K miles. All original rollers and TB tensioner. Tensioner had a big crack in the back of it. Tensioner marks far apart. Belt loose enough to pull off the crank without releasing tension.

Car runs beautifully with new TB properly installed.

Imagine that!

thanks for saving another one Bruce.

You should set up video lottery games in your garage.

Ya know, I gotta make a mobile out of the trashed tensioners I have here.......

Y'all will get to meet him next weekend at the fest. Lives 3 miles from the site.
