Hi there,

remove the timing belt tensioner (2 10mm bolts) and re set as per pic, you will need to slowly collapse it in a vice and lock it with a small pin, a drill will do, when installed and belt set , remove pin and tensioner will extend and take up slack. Make sure that all the belt slack is at the tensioner and re check all mark before turning engine .
