Jam nut?
I better take another look at the manual, I my have missed that step.......

 

Thats the bolt I cant seem to get to.......

 

I could be way off base here since I don't have mine put together yet, but are you sure you are looking at the right thing? According to the pics in the manual, the jam nut is that big nut that is at the center of the tensioner pulley. It keeps the pulley from moving by locking it to the frame plate.

PLEASE, somebody tell him. I wanna know, too!
Actually, try to PM "Jenner". He's had his for a while now and should know. Send him this link so we can all see his answer.

 

1) Lift & secure front of the car.
2) Use a 19mm open ended wrench (the longer the handle the better) and access from underneath the engine.
3) Loosen the belt tensioner arbor screw located between the front of the engine block and the SC assembly. It's a tight fit but it can be reached.
4) Adjust tension screw as needed
5) Re-tighten arbor screw

Here's a pic from the manual:

Hope this helps!

 

Thank you very much
What a pain in the butt that is to tighten the pulley, and they say it needs to be done a second time.
Thanks for your help.
