Re: wanted tensioner and roller
As far as I'm aware the tubby only came in Executive and SRi trim, and I'm pretty sure that means it was only sold with AC

Perhaps Tyerz is ditching the AC

the executive was A/C only but on servicebox they do list the turbo engine without A/C, and auto data has 2 diagrams for belt routing again one wit A/C one without, but how the tensiopner works on the A/C model there is no way of making it work without the A/C pump, this engine is actually goin in a 306GTi-6 running the 6 speed box and if i can avoid having to put an A/C pump in i will
Re: wanted tensioner and roller
I'm guessing the XU10J2TE may have come on other trim levels outside the UK, seeing as "Executive, SRi, etc" seem to be very UK-centric", so your best bet in this country may be to have a dig around and see if the 306 had it without AC.
There's always the option of getting a new one from the dealers....
