Thanks
Thanks
I didbt bother with it on my 835. I soaked the belts in WD40 to soften them up a bit and then run the car in till the drive train was nice and free.

The weird thing is that I browsed through mytsn forum and haven't seen anybody saying anything about side belt tension.
Thanks

Thanks guys. I know what you mean now. From some reason I was thinking about the pulley side as a front. My fault.
One more question. I've heard some people just leave it tight and the belt will stretch after a while. Would that be wrong to do as it might put some extra stress on bearings and drivetrain at the begining?
Thanks again.

Sounds to me that someone is thinking more of the Impulse and the 705 which where pretty much the same car. 710 is a completely different animal .Totaly in another class compared to the other 2 !!!!
