WHILE LOOSENING MY TENSIONER PULLEY ON THE VORTECH SC THE BOLT GOT SCREWED OFF. NOW WHEN I WENT TO TIGHTEN THE PULLY THE SCREWES JUST KEEP GOING DOWN THE THREADS AND I CANT TIGHTEN THE PULLEY TO FININSH THE PROJECT....WHAT DO I NEED TO DO???????????

 

Call Vortech and get a replacement. Remember the Vortech has two points to loosen before adjusting and two points to tighten.

 

IS THEIR ANY OTHER WAY ....LIKE USING SOME LOCK TIGHT???

 

remove them off completely
replace them with different bolt and nut
rethread the hole if necessary


this will probably be quicker than waiting for parts from vortech

 

Which bit do you mean exactly?

The Nylok nut at the bottom, the adjuster nut, or the nut holding the pulley on??

I THINK THE ADJUSTOR NUT...IT IS THE 14MM NUT YOU PUT THE SOCKET ON AND TURN

 

what ever bit that stop you from tightening the bolt and nut

 

WHAT??

 

Please turn the caps lock off. It makes you look like you are screaming.

The vortech belt tensioners that I have worked on have a 19mm locknut on the tensioner , and a 10mm headed bolt on the tensioner jackscrew. I'm not sure what 14mm bolt you are turning.
