The bearing on the belt tensioner squeaks LOUDLY for a good 15 minutes until the engine is warmed up at which point it completely quiets down as if there was never a squak. I have posted a video with the sound and showing the how much movement there is on the belt tensioner. It might also be the...

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and love mustangs. My 1997 Mustang V6 Belt tensioner arm is broken and completely jammed in place. I've tried to loosen it every way possible; i.e. hexagonal allen wrench attached to long pole for leverage, tapping allen wrench with hammer, WD-40 to help...
