Fitting auxil. belt tensioner on Escort zetec engine   
How do I remove the auxilary belt tensioner on the Escort zetec engine? I 
cannot find the thread of similar question. There appears to be a torx or 
allen key type bolt hidden in the support, but I cannot find anything to fit 
it.

Re:Fitting auxil. belt tensioner on Escort zetec engine   
I'll answer my own question in case orthers have same trouble. The newest 
version of Escort has a permanent tensioner and the whole bracket complete 
with tensioner has to be bought! Fords do not have any available at the 
moment! the version where the tensioner is fitting into its own bracket, ie 
does not hold the steering pump as well, has a bolt at the rear of the 
bracket.
