I have a 1996 Sable with Vulcan motor. I am trying to replace the belt tensioner assembly. The bolt is a star/torx. Does anyone know which size it is? Also it is tought to get onto it squarely with the the lines in the way. Suggestions? I already am moving the coolant overflow continer but I do not want to drain the coolant.

Don't worry, I fixed it. You need a Torx 50 to get the tensioner assembly out. Also you need to remove thecoolant overlfow reservoir for enough room. Also remove the idler pulley first.
