So my belt & or pulley/tensioner are squealing. I got a new belt, pulley & tensioner. I said F it, I'll go ahead and change them all out.

Now the dumb question is, What do I use to get the tensioner to move and get the belt out 1st? Unless I'm being stupid but I tried a ratchet on the bolt and it didn't want to move. Tried the opposite way and it seemed like it just loosened the bolt.

There is a square hole that you put the ratchet or a belt tensioner tool in. It is spring loaded so you just pull it back.
