Okay, trying to remove elbow joints, have already removed alternator, but having issues, finding the joints, wondering if I have to remove, the tensioner.
Please advise.I have tried to remove the bracket area for alternator, alternator is removed, that area seems not to be desired area to access elbows, it's a lot of removal hoses etc.
So I'm wondering if I have to remove the tensioner, in order to access those two elbows.
Thanks thanks.

Can you be more specific about which elbows you are trying to remove? Clearly you are talking about coolant hoses but I am just not sure which ones you are talking about.

Can you get some pictures of what you are dealing with and that may help? Thanks
