Hey guys - I can't for the life of me get the pulley off for the tensioner - is it reverse threaded (the one below the alternator). None supercharged engine.

Thanks a ton!!
 


I believe they are reverse threaded. The Idler Pully nut is reverse tread (you have to turn right to loosen this) this is because you turn left to loosen belt tension
 
Yep it sure is. Amazing how easy it comes off when your pulling the right direction. Thankfully I didn't fully strip it out (was some metal shavings but not too bad).

Thanks
