Cant seem to find any clear info on this subject at all.
2.2 TDCI Puma engine RWD

So, I need to know how to detension my my serpentine belt tensioner as I need to remove my alternator, its misaligned with the other puleys!!!!

Any help appreciated.

There's a square drive hole in the arm for a ratchet or extension to fit in to use as a bar to remove tension.
