Thanks Ed - I’ve been looking for one of these for some time. Just ordered one.

Do not tighten your water pump belt on a Yanmar to drum tight. Yanmar
directs that you be able to deflect the belt a little bit. I ruined the
shaft and pulley using a similar tool over tightening the belt.

Listers,
I thought I’d pass along a recommendation for a great tool in getting
perfect belt tension when installing a new belt on your C&C engine. It’s called
a Belt Tension Jack.
I saw a write up on the SAIL Magazine website and was very skeptical,
but the $22 gamble paid off
