You DO NOT have to pull the charger, you don't even need to use the maintenence hole.

Just retract the new tensioner with the bolt/nut combo and install it.

It took me 20 minutes to do an S/Ced car.

Brilliant!

That's why Billman gets the big bucks for working on s2ks.

i have even heard of one person doing the tct install with the pin removed prior to installation, not sure that i would ever do it this way though, too risky

That be me. 30 minutes tops with SC installed, as listed above, pull the pin before inserting, you do not need the maintenance hole.

I can see a 1 hour charge even though it only takes 15-30 minutes. Most shops have a minimum time.
