i am trying to change my tensioner pulley and i do not know what socket i need to use to loosen the pulley not the bolt that holds the pulley on but the one that changes the tension

leave it taught why you take the pulley off

u dont need a socket u use a 3/8 ratchet with out a socket on it.

i don't think you can take just the pulley off of the tensioner unit... its part of the design you have to remove the whole assembly
