Well I had to cut a fair bit of the lip off the back of the old one to get the sleeve in the vice. The metal looks powdery where its snapped in places. Not sure if I'd want to put that back on even in an emergency.

Right, we're on.

I've put copper slip on the sleeve thread, sleeve/elbow slot & cap to secure elbow joint. Nothings torqued up yet, though.

Definitely must have been the tensioner itself as the new one gave way much easier with lots of movement.

What size allen key do I need for the AC tensioner & is it just as tight as I can lever it?

8mm or 10mm

and a 13mm spanner

I think its the 10mm Allen key from what I've read elsewhere on thr forum. The thread turned into a barney

. One guy stating the AC tensioner has "two holes above each other..."
