Product Description

    Replacing the timing belt on Toyota 5VZ-FE, 3.4 liter V-6 engines is a very difficult task. The professional technician has no means to effectively compress the hydraulically activated belt tensioner without spending additional time removing engine components. These popular engines can be found in 1995 and later T-100, Tacoma and 4 Runner trucks. In operation this tool is placed between the belt tensioner and the water pump pulleys.Then by slowly turning the tools inner nut, pressure is applied to the hydraulic tensioner pushing it into a position that allows the technician to place the supplied locking pin into the hydraulic piston push rod. Once the locking pin is in place the tensioner compressor can be removed and the timing belt placed on all appropriate pulleys. After the belt is placed on the engine pulleys, the locking pin can be removed to return tension on the timing belt.

    Just finished changing the timing belt on my 3.4L Toyota V-6, and I was impressed enough with this tool that I had to write a short review.
    This is a quality, American-made tool that made a fairly difficult task quite a bit easier. Eliminates the need to remove the timing belt tensioner from the vehicle to compress it. After changing my belt and partially re-assembling the engine to check my timing marks I found that I was one tooth off on both cams. So I got to do it all over again! Without this tool I would still be cursing.
    One important note about using the tool: Be patient! You have to allow the oil to bleed off the tensioner, so just take it really easy during the compression. I would turn the nut on the tool about a half turn, then wait about 30 seconds, then another turn. Use the locking pin to feel for the hole in the tensioner shaft as you compress the tensioner. Be patient and you'll be rewarded with a successful belt change.

    I used this tensioner compressor on my 4Runner 3.4L and it simplified the timing belt replacement by not requiring removal of the AC compressor bracket and the timing belt tensioner. Follow the included instructions and don't tighten the compressor too fast. It takes several seconds for the fluid to bleed down from the hydraulic tensioner and if you tighten it too quickly and too hard you could break something.

    As you begin to tighten the nut on the tool, probe carefully into the hole on the tensioner dust boot with the included "pin." Take your time, pause for a few seconds as you feel the compression build up in the tool, and you can feel the tensioner holes line up. Carefully slide the pin completely through the tensioner holes and back out the nut on the tool. Install your new timing belt and pull the pin on the tensioner.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Cheaply Made Tool / Installation Warning
    Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    I tried it on a '98 Toyota T-100, V-6, 4WD.
    This is a flimsy made tool for the price, One saddle bent trying to use it and the swivel end scarred and did not rotate smoothly. You can't tell how much pressure you are exerting with this thing and I could never get the alignment pin inserted. Was scarred to break the water pump!
    WARNING Note as I found out the hard way: If the tensioner stem rotates even a millimeter when it is released, you will never be able to insert the pin. The hole in the stem of the tensioner is below the rubber dust cover, so you can't see if alignment is correct.. I ended up removing the A/C compressor, tied it off to the side, then removed the bracket in order to get the tensioner off. This truck's engine compartment had the room.
    When inserted correctly, the pin goes completely through the stem to an alignment hole in the other side of the housing. The only way you can see that, is to put it in a vise.

    Bought this tool for changing out the water pump and timing belt on a 3.4 v6 in a 1999 4runner. Worked great once i figured out what was going on. Like others commented, the tool can come apart on you. It has about 10 threads before it comes apart. At first i was maxing out at the 10th thread and unable to get the pin to slide through. Later, i found out i was completely missing the hole in the tensioner rod with the included locking pin. I had to rotate the tensioner rod with some vice grips so that the hole lined up with the hole in the tensioner for the pin. Afterwards, I counted 8 threads at which point the pin went through the ram on the tensioner. I also tightened a 5" c-clamp on the inside of the roller and the bolt of the tensioner as a back up in-case the pin let go.

    2000 4Runner 3.4L V6. This tool allows you to do the timing belt without removing the A/C compressor. If you're going to replace the tensioner anyway you don't need this, but it really doesn't need it and you save yourself a lot of time and aggravation by using this. My only complaint was the retaining pin had a pretty substantial burr on it that made it difficult to remove. I didn't see it until after the fact. File that off before you start and you'll be better off.

    I was hesitant to pay this much money for a small simple tool but it is a lifesaver when changing the 4runners timing belt. One side wanted to roll over off time whenever i stretched the belt and i wound up taking the belt off three times before i got it right. Each time this would help reset the tensioner. TAKE IT SLOW on compressing the tensioner. This tool will not fit with the timing belt on. Remove it first, pull and pull some more.

    This tool is awesome it will save you lots of frustration and time replacing your timing belt. without this tool you will have to completely remove the air conditioning compressor and bracket in order to access the hydraulic timing belt tensioner which needs to be clamped in a vice to reset. This tool bypasses all this extra work and resets the tensioner without removal. The tool comes with a nice set of instructions follow them carefully to avoid any problems
