Greetings people, got a bit of a problem, I can't recall how the chain tensioner goes together on my DT. Anybody do me a picture of one in situ so i can get mine on right.

I know it doesent fit in an obvious way but when you have it right its a dodle but i just cant see it.

OHHH so close, any chance you could get a shot from underneath. Its the bloody spring that just wont sit right.

The manual, ha when i looked in it, there in black and white. "Its important to note she spring position when removing the tensioner" :blink:

My fault for not taking a photo, lesson learned.

Ok now i feel stupid, (don't all shout at once) the chain tensioner spring and the rear brake return spring are vey similar. ie similar enough to mix up.

Stupid stupid stupid..........
