I bought this tensioner based on the reviews- I was hoping to get an INA part. When I unboxed the part, I was not disappointed... it was the real deal.

Worked well and even had the INA manufacturing label on it. It's an OEM tensioner for a cheap price.

Be sure to use the 16mm nut on the tensioner to move the pulley, don't use a pry bar.Also note that there are two holes that you can line up and then put a nail or allen wrench through to keep the tensioner "open". This lets you position the belt on the pulleys with both hands.

Had to return it. It was the wrong one due to changes in the 95 model year.

It is actually an A/C belt tensioner. However, the brand stamped on the tensioner was INA, so the part was much higher quality than expected!
