b16a2 timing belt question

[communic]

Hey,

I'm in the process of getting all the parts required to do 200k svc

Just wondering if I have to replace the Timing belt tensioner spring?

If so, where is the best place to get one? My local Honda Dealer says it will take 3 weeks to get here from Japan!

Cheers,

you replace whole tensioner not just the spring

yes,
I bought the tensioner from Honda, I only got the pulley.

re use spring.

what wears out is the bearing inside pulley.
