   Anyway we got a new tensioner and we put it in the vehicle but it seems although the bracket has been tightened enough its still moving a little you can move it by hand and it is shaky is this normal cos i dont seem to remember it being like this, also when the belt has been tightened it still comes off when you rev the car faster.
could it be becos the bracket is moving around? or have we missed something like a part that came off and forgot to put back on a washer maybe ?
please advise.

	why not just take it to a garage and have it fitted. i would rather pay the minimal cost than bust my ass like it seems you been doing!

	What do you mean when you say you can move it by hand? Have you checked that all the pulleys are lined up?
