I just replaced all of the drive belts on my '84 240. The alternator tensioner wasn't like the ones on my other Volvos. It looks like you just hold the alt. tight and then tighten the nut. There's no actual tensioner ( with the long 10 mm bolt going perpendicular through the 13 mm lock bolt ). Am I missing something here. The alternator wobbles around when the car is running. I'm going to replace those rubber bushings soon, but need to get the belts tighter.

Thanks in advance.
Dave
