Dan,

Yep, that did the trick. It is very clear how they want you to do this and I don't see any reason to do otherwise, but I also don't see the logic in doing what they ask! I did take some time and mess around with my old one tonight, and didn't find anything conclusive. I could spin mine either way, and it didn't seem to make much difference. Unfortunately, I'm also not simulationg the real installation. To do this I'll need to tap a plate and mount the old tensioner and then play around again. I currently don't have the stock to tap to simulate the mounting, but perhaps by this weekend? After I do that, I'll see if I can disassemble the unit to see what makes it "tick". So far I'm not seeing anything, but I'm just a dumb ol Quality engineer.
