Sorry if I'm repeating myself but I have a 99 Honda Civic LX and I did a timing belt , water pump, and tensioner replacement. How come come there are so many different tensioners and no clear instructions on how to install properly or correct tension specs?

Rep Power: 0 timing belt tensioners?
I'm looking for any kind of advise here? I have a 99 Honda civic LX I just changed the timing belt, water pump, and and timing belt tensioner. I'm not sure if the tensioner is doing what it's supposed to or if I installed it right? There are limited or no instructions at all for installation guidelines?? and Everytime I look it up there is always a different looking one then I installed ? can someone please help me?

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

There is but one tensioner on the engine for the timing belt, and any factory service manual (along with many other decent manuals) has the correct procedure.
