Working on a 2001 Ford Ranger XLT, 2-wheel drive, 3.0 liter engine, with air conditioning. Attempting to replace just the pulley on the serpentine belt tensioner, not the entire assembly. What is the recommended torque spec for the bolt that fastens the pulley to the tensioner arm? Thanks for any information that anyone can provide!
